Welcome

A Bookaholic, Pro-life, Conservative, Catholic, with Asperger's, who reads a lot. These are the ramblings of the books I read or read aloud to my energetic Autistic 11yo. I love reading almost any book from classics to mysteries to fantasy to ARCs. I sometimes go through stages of "genre love", get addicted to manga and graphic novels or get caught up in reading ARCs, but you'll find I read a wide variety of books, both fiction and non-fiction. I tend to post a lot of reviews of juvenile/teen books but I still do a lot of adult reviews as well. I read well over 200 books a year, but haven't made it to 300 yet!

And the Winner is ......


Today's lucky winner of Flute's Journey: The Life of a Wood Thrush by Lynne Cherry is ........

#12 ...... Mystica

Asked what her favourite bird was, Mystica replied "My favourite bird is the woodpecker." Congratulations! I will be emailing you shortly.

We had several woodpeckers and robins, cardinals, lots of hummingbirds, etc. and even *my* favourite the blue jay showed up a couple of times. What surprised me though was everyone stayed with birds indigenous to North America. When I asked the question I had envisions of toucans, penguins, kookaburras or peacocks! Does that mean that when it comes down to it we really appreciate more the small things which we already have at home than the grandeur to be found in far away places? Hmmmmm .......

You can read my review of Flute's Journey here. Or click on the picture to purchase.

Come back tomorrow for the chance to win another book!
