If that is the book, I am interested in reading it. I see my library has the Dutch version only, so I guess I will get that soon and start reading it.

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments This isn't the only book I'm reading at the moment but it's one! Dewey The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World by Vicki Myron

I really like it (it would fit for the state challenge! :D) and it's set in a small town library. This IS a true story written by the actual librarian! Usually, not many people visited this library but after Dewey enters the library he steals everybody's hearts and it's such a great book! Definitely recommend! Has anyone already read and finished it?!


message 779: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments oooh oooh states challenge?? which state? :)

I never read it, but it sounds interesting! I'll have to find the time to read this. :D


message 782: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Andii (violinistmichirukaioh) | 6 comments I'm reading Embrace the Grim Reaper (Grim Reaper Mystery #1) by Judy Clemens . It's pretty good, a bit confusing though at first.

Mehsi Book Girl and the Corrupted Angel by Mizuki Nomura and The Future of Us by Jay Asher

The Gathering Storm book was not all to fun. Might try it again in some months. But the names (all from Russia or from countries around it) distracted me too much from the story.

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Yes I agree. Some parts of the book were just irritating and odd. I don't recommend it to young readers :)
