"My mother used to say that when she read me bedtime stories, my favorite time of the evening because I finally had her all to myself, I would stop her midway through and tell her what was going to happen to the characters whose lives she was spinning for me. The stories I guessed correctly I had her read to me over and over. The few that I couldn't I put in the back of the bookshelf never to come off it again."
I've been in a bit of a reading slump for about a week now, reading a chapter here and there but nothing has thrilled me. I liked the sound of this intro and so I hope it will be a winner.
What do you think. Read more or pass?
I'm interested too.

ReplyDeleteIt sounds like it would be a good summer read.
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun...I already love the narrator.
ReplyDeleteI have been reading "bedtime stories" to myself lately. I went through a book of Irish folk and fairy tales. Now I am reading Norse tales. So, I could relate to this girl.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like just the book to help you out of your reading slump!
ReplyDeleteOh I hate it when I go through a reading slump. Hope this one turns up to be a good read for you!
