Meg-A Readers Read-A-Thon (June 17th-23rd)!!

Hey Everyone!
Meg-A Readers is officially half way over! (how time flies!!!, I just can't stop saying that enough!).

SO to kick off the half-way point Diana (Little Miss Drama Queen) and I are hosting the Meg-A Readers Read-a-Thon!!

The Read-a-Thon will be running all this week (June 17th-23rd) and will have ANYONE (not only the participants) who wants to read Meg Cabot books ALL WEEK and as MANY as they can!

I've actually got family coming tomorrow, family that I only get to see once every two years for a little over two weeks, and who come specifically for my brother and my birthday, so I honestly don't know how much time I will actually have to read this week!  I'm hoping to definitely finish both Heather Wells books (Size 14 is Not Fat Either & Big Boned) and maybe possibly Size 12 and Ready to Rock!!!!! Or continue reading the 1-800 Where-R-You? Series.  But who knows!

So what will YOU be reading this week??
I would love to know in the comments, and if you're participating this week, and have a blog, and wrote a review then leave the links below and I will post in the Recap on Friday!!

So are you all ready?? Meg-A Readers Read-a-Thon has officially BEGUN!!

READY...SET...GO!!!!!!!!

Marriage Vacation by Pauline Turner Brooks (aka Jo Piazza)

Hey Everyone! I finished another book!  I bought this one along with Shrill , when I found an Amazon Books store in NYC last week! I cannot believe I already finished both in less than a week, when I hadn't finished a single book since last July! From Goodreads : In season four of Darren Star's hit TV Land series Younger , the editors of Empirical Press are shocked and deeply moved when they read Marriage Vacation , an autobiographical novel by the publisher's estranged wife, Pauline Turner Brooks.  Knowing the book will cause a sensation, they decide they must publish it.  Now you can read what the hype is about. To find herself...she might lose everything. By all appearances, Kate Carmichael had the perfect life: two adorable daughters, a pre-war town house on the Upper East Side, and a husband who ran one of the most successful publishing companies in New York.  But when Kate attends the wedding of two of her oldest friends, and reconnect...

The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick

I saw the movie Hugo (directed by Martin Scorsese) right before the New Year.  Let me back track, and let you know that usually I am NOT a fan of Oscar movies.  If I'm being honest, I find them to be boring.  However, this year has seemed to bring quite a few more exceptions than normal.  Among those are: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 , The Help , and Hugo.   I fell in love with Hugo .  I thought it so beautifully done.  The music, the characters, the story.  I found myself crying even at points that wouldn't necessarily make you cry.  I honestly, didn't know the movie was based on a book; but when I found out at the end, I knew I had to read it. The winner of the Children's Caldecott Award, The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick is nothing like anything I've ever read.  Normally, when I read I imagine the story that I am reading  unfolding in my head like a movie; but with The Invention of Hugo ...

The Hunger Games Should be BANNED!!

Image
Okay, let me begin by saying, you may find my title misleading...but guess what? It got you to read this post! :) PLEASE CONTINUE READING!! I really think something needs to be known!  The Hunger Games should NOT be allowed in elementary schools!!  In fact, I don't even think it should be allowed in middle school either! This is the whole point to this post! I read the series last year, and enjoyed them.  I thought the story was definitely very original.  I am going to be making a few lists in this post, and here is my first... Pros about The Hunger Games : -original story -great characters -details were great...sometimes a bit too much actually -metaphorically speaking, the message I got out of this book is people are selfish and that they would do anything to survive, and while this isn't a great message, I think it is true about people (at least quite a bit around the world...NOT all!! but quite a few) Cons about The Hunger Games : -I think my #1 c...
