The Lightning Thief | Rick Riordan

Fun middle grade escapism! This is the first book in a while that really grabbed my attention, and I read it in just a couple days. If you enjoy middle grade fantasy and fast paced action stories, I‘d recommend this.

And with that, I‘ve finished the #BirthAndBeyondReadingChallenge #BBRC. This was my cover-change-mid-series book. And honestly I wouldn‘t have read it otherwise, so thanks Ryan! (I still need to update my google sheet...)

Soubhiville Also this was my #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks 😁 4y
intothehallofbooks This series is so much fun!! 4y
LibrarianRyan Yeahhhhhhhhhh 4y
TheAromaofBooks I keep meaning to read this series!! 4y

Thank you for the bookmarks @LibrarianRyan!

Luckily I did not have to fend off the two bookmark stealing kids this time, because what peaked my kids' curiosity was how this letter made it to me without a stamp on. I suppose it got lost in transit. 😉

Mehso-so

Well, that was...a thing 😂 Read this one out of sheer nostalgia. And it pretty much lived up to my expectations. I just wonder how much children actually enjoy this series.

This was my #readerschoice for the #BBRC #birthandbeyondreadingchallenge.

#BFCR3 check in!
I‘m learning keto
I walked yesterday and today-
I did not become depressed, but I did get overwhelmed! I did fit in two days with walking, and I read 26 books today!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

wanderinglynn Way to go! 🙌🏻 5y

Mitch @Chrissyreadit Ahhhhh! 😂 5y
Crazeedi You did so well! Especially with a chane in diet, that's so hard, congrats 5y
MicrobeMom Great job! You are doing awesome. 5y
Gissy Wow! Congratulations! That diet is too much for me😳 5y
Chrissyreadit @Gissy it‘s hard to get the fat and protein because I was vegan. I had to add dairy in and it‘s breaking my heart but I love the veggies in general. It‘s doable if I get my health back 5y
Blaire Great week!! Yes, if you can add in yogurt - full day yogurt has tons of protein. We also eat tons of beans, lentils, and avocados at my house. 5y
Chrissyreadit @Blaire thank you!!! 5y
sudi You are doing great👏👏👏, and reading soooo many books 😯 5y

What a cute book! I love books that do rhyming well. It sets my little guys imagination on fire. Sweet story about what a zoo does to beat the winter doldrums.♡

I arrived at the library for my bookclub meeting a bit early today so I could find a couple more middle grade books for the #BBRC #BirthAndBeyondReadingChallenge

I sat and read these two graphic novels, and I checked out two books for other categories. I‘m not sure if I‘ve ever visited the middle grade section of the library as an adult. There were a lot of interesting books on the shelves!

Light was fun, with a quest feel, and Giant Sloths ⬇️

Soubhiville Giant Sloth had a lot of educational info, as well as a story of a giant sloth trying to find his herd, while encountering lots of other prehistoric creatures. 5y
LibrarianRyan I loved light. 5y
Soubhiville @LibrarianRyan I really liked it too! It felt like playing a video game. 💎 5y

Trying to finish the first part of #bbrc #birthandbeyondreadingchallenge and realizing there are gaps in my (buggy‘s) home library... so I had to make a library stop 😁

LibrarianRyan I forgot about Zombillina!!! 5y

We are one month into #bbrc or #birthandbeyondreadingchallenge hosted by @LibrarianRyan and thought I‘d record my current status - knowing that no other month will be nearly as impressive or satisfying.

LibrarianRyan woo woo. Look at some of those done lines! 5y

Lots happening.. lots on my mind... reading a little for #bbrc #birthandbeyondreadingchallenge ... lots of good buggy moments... lots of job craziness (represented by that pic in the upper middle 😆)... and amid 100-degree weather, thinking about fall.

Guys I‘m thinking of *not* doing #fffs this year. I‘m thinking of maybe doing a cozy swap if @cobwebmoth or someone else wasn‘t already doing it..

But any thoughts? Input?

cobwebmoth Feel free to resurrect #letsgetcozy if you want. If you want assistance just let me know.😘 5y
Avanders @cobwebmoth 😘😘 5y
Kayla.Adriena I need some kinda fall swap in my life! Cozy, hygge it's all fun! 5y

umbrellagirl Yes to hygge swap! So ready for autumn. This heat is awful. 5y
LibrarianRyan Why not. Do what makes you happy. I don‘t normally do the fall swap since I can not seem to not sign up for all the Halloween swaps bu I do love a good cozy. 5y
BooknerdsLife Beautiful photos💖 5y
Catsandbooks So ready for fall!! 🙌🏼🍁🍂 5y
UwannaPublishme Wishing you cooler and stress-free days ahead! 🤗💕 5y
RainyDayReading I can‘t wait for fall! Really hope that if my finances work out I‘ll be able to participate (if you decide to do this 🙂) 5y
erzascarletbookgasm I love fall swaps..fffs, cozy, or hygge! 🍂🍁🧡 5y
Rudis Cozy sounds like a wonderful swap idea! 5y
Zelma Photo of the aerobics championship? 👍👏😂 5y
mom2bugnbee All sound wonderful - do what you like! Also, Ten Little Ladybugs was one of my now 17yo daughter's favorite books as a toddler. She still has it on her bookshelf. ? "Bug" is her nickname (see my handle name) which contributed to it. ☺ 5y
Gissy Oh I will miss the ffffff swap☺️cozy swap sounds like cozy😂Yeah. I'm inn! For the ffffff or the cozzzzzy one😴 5y
Avanders @Kayla.Adriena @umbrellagirl @LibrarianRyan @RainyDayReading @erzascarletbookgasm @Rudis @Gissy thanks for your input! I feel the same way about all the fall and cozy swaps! 😁 But life won‘t permit all the swaps, I *guess* 😘😘😘😘😘 5y
Avanders @BooknerdsLife thanks! ♥️ @catsandbooks me too!! 🥵🍂🍁🧡 @UwannaPublishme thanks! 💖💖 @Zelma yes!! 😂 @mom2bugnbee aww that‘s so cool that she still has it! 💖💖 “Bug” forms the basis for many of my bugga‘s nicknames 😆😆 5y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks 😘😘😘 5y
BethM I‘m totally in for a cozy swap! I need this in my life and fall is perfection. I hope life slows down some for you! 5y
MaleficentBookDragon I love the idea of a swap!!! I'm in. I was thinking of doing one called A Cozy Weekend just because I ♥ cozies so much; but you are so much more organized than me. I'll stick with my Halloween and Xmas ones. 5y
Avanders @BethM fall is my happy place 🍁🍂🍁🍂♥️ @MaleficentBookDragon A Cozy Weekend sounds wonderful — you should do it! I‘m normally very organized, but I‘ve been so crazed and ... if I‘m being honest with myself (difficult to do sometimes!), I don‘t know when it‘ll slow down.. I just wanted a cozy swap *happening* 😁 So if you‘re up for it, I‘ll sign up for yours and amplify it and dream of cozy nights 😁🍂🍁⛈🧦🥰 5y
BethM @Avanders @MaleficentBookDragon either way I‘m in! 5y
Avanders @MaleficentBookDragon okay I‘m going ahead with this one! This way, you can focus on your Halloween swap (and this will be my fall swap). 😁 Hope I‘m not stepping on toes! Let me know though! I can back off easily! 5y
MaleficentBookDragon @Avanders Yay! I just signed up. And I'll do my #AllHallowsReadSwap and #JolabokaflosSwap 5y
