I love teaching 7th grade, and I love hearing their thoughts on reading. And I really don't care if the thoughts are the good, the bad or the ugly! I can deal with them all. Well Saturday's are now the day I'll be highlighting them - the real reason I run this blog. Bi-weekly I'll be feature a MG reader. These are the kids that are really out there reading MG and YA books. And these are their thoughts on reading. For the spotlight they answer a bunch of questions about their reading.

Great interview Abbey. Love your picture too. My daughter read the Uglies too and liked it. I'll have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteFun! And she prefers hardcovers?? wow.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the interview. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great feature! I'm surprised she chose Little Women as her deserted island read - A.K. sounds like a super reader!
ReplyDeleteLike Katie, I'm surprised she chose Little Women as her deserted island read. I don't think I would have had the patience to read a book like that when I was her age.
ReplyDeleteThis is a really cool feature! Most of the book bloggers I follow are adults. I lose sight of the opinions of those the books are really written for. I really look forward to reading more interviews =D
