I really enjoyed The Wildwood Series by Colin Meloy and when I saw the audiobook for his latest was narrated by Bronson Pinchot I was on this like white on rice. It didn't disappoint. Clever funny writing and another fantastic performance by Pinchot. Great middle grade read. If you've never listened to Pinchot look for books he's done. He does an excellent job

toofondofbooks @rretzler If I can sit down without being disturbed I can get one done in about 2 hours. 5y
StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego So cute! And a lot of work. 5y
rretzler I have a pattern for all 13 doctors from Doctor Who and I‘ve been trying to decide if I want to tackle them. They seem similar in size. That‘s certainly less time than the blanket I‘m currently knitting and a small project would give me a sense of accomplishment! 😁 5y
toofondofbooks @rretzler they are really fun and all single crochet 5y

Just received a ton of surprise book mail! Apparently it's been stacking up at my old office, and they just forwarded it along! Exciting day!!

The cover sold me on this one ... but the story didn't. It follows a boy on the 1960's who goes to live with his diplomat father in Europe. He grows bored of privilege and finds himself in a pick-pocketing-gang. A pick pocket gang that targets the privileged. The story is fun, but I feel like I've read this exact story before. The ARC had some gorgeous drawings though, & the writing/characters are strong. Overall - you'll know if this is for you.

quirkyreader Kind of sounds like "The Thief Lord" by Cornellia Funke 7y
MorganNotMegan @quirkyreader Yes! That was one of the books I was thinking of, def felt similar but lighter tone 7y
vicgreentoriafield Love the cover through the magnifying glass 7y
