Just finished Rosie. I think I mentioned it in my last post - it was the book on the bottom of the stack...but it was unopened. Once I opened it, I read it straight through.
My mother and I have been visiting various book sales and getting great prices. The last sale I got ten books for ten bucks. Can't beat that! Well, actually you can. See, if you go to the Falmouth Library Sale - uh, wait, should I be telling my secret? - on the very last day, it's a buck for a bag of books!
I am such a nerd.
So I picked this book out at the Presbyterian Church Rummage Sale - Charlie thought it was a rubbage sale, hehe - because it was by Anne Lamott. After reading the first few pages I made it a book mark. On it I wrote: I think I wrote this book the day I was born.
Really I related less and less the further I got into the book but it was still an enjoyable read. To me it had a To Kill a Mockingbird type feel. Glad I picked it, this time based on its name Rosie. My car is named Rosie, Charlie's favorite guinea pig is named Rosie...so it was only natural. Duh.

I wonder if 'Lethal Inheritance' by Tahlia Newland might be your next ( or may after the next or the next) best read. Have a look on the 'Lethal Inheritance' page of http/:publishersearch.wordpress.com
Read ch 1 and see what you think.
If you like YA fantasy, I can guarantee you'll love it.
I will check it out...just started reading Crooked Little Heart but soon will need a new read!
