Books We Read – February

This has been a very slow month for books. We have pulled some favorites from the shelf and we’re still enjoying Where the Mountain Meets the Moon and the first Harry Potter book. I have held off on reviews, as the site is in the final stages of transition from a .asp website to a .php one. Look for lots of reviews in March.

Received: 24  ….. New Reads: 12 ….. New Reviews: 0



Please use these category headings to “jump” to your favorite children’s and young adult book categories. We hope this makes the monthly list (and our annual list pages) more enjoyable for you … not to mention a little more manageable to browse.

If you’ve read any of these books, we’d love to link to them so readers can learn more about them! Just click “Our Book Talk” to add your link to our website review (via Mr. Linky) or just paste the URL into a comment and I’ll do the rest.
