You have a lot of Newbery titles on your list! Walk Two Moons is one of my absolute favorite books of all time. I completely adored The Wednesday Wars, and The Bronze Bow had some of the absolute finest character growth I've ever come across in literature.

Thanks for your recommendations.
ReplyDeleteHow I Live Now is odd. I'm only a few chapters in, but it frankly has a Jodi Picoult feel (anorexia) at times. Not crazy about the cousin-cousin relationship either.

Thanks for dropping by my blog. You mentioned that you are thinking about reading The Book Thief. I can't say enough good stuff about that book but I should warn you that it starts off really strange...the narrator is death, which for obvious reasons is a bit off-putting.But once you get past that odd beginning, it is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking this up...
