Last one for the night, I read The House on Mango Street last night and absolutely loved it. I like the snapshots of different aspects/situations of life growing up in the Latino section of Chicago.
Also finished Falling Up, which is one of Silverstein's classic collections of silly, children's poetry. I really enjoyed the poems, cracked me up.
Read The Hero and the Crown, which I was surprised people considered a classic, although it is an older fantasy novel. Didn't love it, but it was a pretty good story generally.

I also read Grimm's Grimmest, which is an automatic 5 stars for the wonderful telling of these old fairy tales. They truly are grimm.
I read The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and really enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I give it 4 stars because it was a little repetitive and not as entertaining as I would've liked it to be.

Maybe by the oldest added? Nothing new for me right now.

The Princess Bride, Pride and Prejudice, The Secret Garden, Oliver Twist, The Count of Monte Cristo, and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court are all on my list for June.
For that amount of books.. I guess I just read too many of the same types of books.

I'm more of a fantasy girl, but the genres tend to crossover a lot. So yeah, I just dig my fantasy/scifi books alot and I also read more YA fiction because I work in a middle school library. I'll probably knock through a few more this month as well.
