I'm reading this for the Flashback Reading Challenge. The last time I read it my son was just over a month old, so I was reading while he napped and only half awake myself!

I'm super excited because The Dead Tossed Waves is be released TOMORROW! This is the "sequel" to The Forest of Hands and Teeth. I say "sequel" because it's not a tradiation sequel. I loved TFOHT - so I can't wait to read this one. And this is horrible because I just realized I didn't review it! I read it over Chirstmas so some got away from me! I'll review it this week :p
Just order both The Forest of Hands and Teeth and Dead Tossed Waves. Should be getting them this week. Hopefully with Spring break next week I will actually get more reading done. Hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI finished the final Harry Potter book while on vaction with my youngest daughter, visiting my sister and a couple brothers. And when I was done, I simply HAD to text my oldest daughter, with whom I'd begun the whole HP experience. (Hey Emma, I said to my then-4th-grader. I heard of this book you might like...) And we had a fabulous text conversation back and forth about the book. Wonderful memory.
ReplyDeleteI'm currently reading about the power of forgiveness, in a great non-fiction read, "Fear to Freedom" by Rosemary Trible. Reconciliation is an important message of this book, which is by a rape survivor, and the journey from victim to victory. She helps teach us that the cycle of fear can be broken and lost joy found again. Her life was transformed by her journey from fear to faith -- and it's inspiring to know we can do that, as well, no matter what the trauma or the need.
Forgot to add -- my Potter-loving daughter? She also LOVES birds. When she wakes up (she's home on break) I'm going to show her your blog-- she'll love the owls.
ReplyDeleteHa! I am super excited for DTW too, and I, too, forgot to review FOHAT! I did defend it heartily in a group discussion on Goodreads, though.
ReplyDeleteI have been having a bit of a "Potter" craving lately. I have the second book out for my Harry Potter Challenge and My Gilmore Girl Challenge. It will also qualify for my YA Challenge as well as my 100+ Challenge.... I love books that cover many challenges :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week!
Oh, thanks for the reminder about the DTW! I also checked out Sarah's blog and let her know you sent me.
ReplyDeleteI better get busy and read Forest of Hands and Teeth which is sitting on my night stand-because the sequel sounds very exciting!
ReplyDeleteHave a great reading week!
