Mistborn

Good morning friends!  I finished the first book in the Mistborn trilogy.  This morning Mrs. Houge walked into my classroom with a surprise. BOOK TWO!  It was checked out by someone else and now I can jump into the second book in the series, The Well of Ascension.  I am a bit weird when it comes to reading.  I only like reading series that are finished (I do not like reading them as they come ou because then I have to wait so long for the next book).  I hope you find a book that invites you into a world of discovery and joy.  Blessings on the start of the school year!

Summer Reading

What an incredible summer.  I absolutely fell in love with the long days, the warm temperatures, the blue skies, and the green grass.  I also had a great summer of reading.  I began by finishing The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan.  What an incredibly series!  If you are looking for a truly epic work (14 books and over 10,000 pages) this is it.  I was blessed to finish and was a bit sad when my time with Rand Al Thor came to an end.  After finishing I read the Mortality Doctrine series by James Dashner. I had read the Maze Runner series earlier in my life and was excited to read more.  It was really good and I recommend it!  My next read was going back to an and favorite that I never finished - The Lorien Legacies.  I had read I am number Four and the next three books a few years ago but the series was not finished and I left frustrated.  Well, the series is completed and all the books are in our library.  I read the series in a week and really loved the story.  It is a very easy and fun read.  I spent some time with Ted Dekker reading The Martyr's Song series and read a WWII favorite as well.  Currently I am reading Mistborn by Branden Sanderson.  It is also Fantasy Literature (one of my favorites).  Mr. Sportel recommended it and I am a big fan of reading recommended books by people who I love and trust.  At the start of this year, I encourage you to check out a book and get lost in a world of reading.  Blessings, friends.
