One of my favorite middle grade novels was Counting by 7's by Holly Goldberg Sloan. This one was equally as sweet and hopeful. A good read for any kid who feels different or has issues in their life well out of their control.

#MiddleGradeMarch #TBR #Pop prompt: author with three last names

They told us in August that our job was going to be outsourced overseas, so I'm in the middle of looking for a new job. I'm not sure how much reading I'll be able to do this month, but I'm going to try.

PurpleyPumpkin Wishing you great good luck in your job hunt!🍀 3w

It has two kittens.

It‘s Jesusy. Which for all intents & purposes is an adjective.

#KindredSpiritsBuddyRead - House of Dreams Discussion - 4/3!

I completely forgot I added a short story to our House of Dreams read! Captain Jim and his life-book are based on LMM‘s story, “The Life-Book of Uncle Jesse.” Here‘s a link to the story:
https://www.online-literature.com/lucy_montgomery/1909-1922/21/

It reads like a preliminary sketch that LMM fleshed out in House of Dreams. If you have a chance to read it, please share your thoughts!

kwmg40 I'd forgotten too! I'll try to get to this in the next few days and return to this thread. 2mo
TheAromaofBooks I enjoyed this short story, that somehow I don't ever remember reading before. However, it's definitely been written almost completely into House of Dreams. I think it's SO fascinating how LMM would take her short stories and weave them into her novels. This one is in the “Along the Shore“ collection, so I think I'm going to read the rest of the shorts in that book as well. 2mo

Published in 2008, the info is so outdated that there is no mention of iPhones. However, it was interesting to skim through as a hindsight read.

7/80
