Not enough time to read a lengthy series with all of the great books out there.Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662811441487822589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22559214.post-15443375030272767472012-09-17T17:40:49.556-04:002012-09-17T17:40:49.556-04:00I think we had a newspaper when I first moved to t...I think we had a newspaper when I first moved to the middle school, but switching away from block scheduling killed my paper. I also hate when covers change mid-series! So annoying and you must convince students they are the same!<br /><br />I love a good series! It all depends on the writing how far I'll go! My issue with buying them is it tends to EAT my budget!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15682700901945724953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22559214.post-90401206214826245942012-09-17T16:51:41.567-04:002012-09-17T16:51:41.567-04:00Thanks for the series ideas.

I...I've always had mixed feelings about series. If a book is great I want it to be a series. If it's not a page turner I'm happy for it to end. But I think I liked them better as a kid when I wasn't trying to read so many books by so many authors. As a kid you don't have a book goal. You just read what you like. Ah, those carefree days!Kim Van Sicklerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04957877837203134260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22559214.post-8833400989026617592012-09-17T11:46:05.535-04:002012-09-17T11:46:05.535-04:00I like that all these books are grounded in real e...I like that all these books are grounded in real experiences. I never thought I'd say this, but I am so sick of my kids reading the Hunger Games and series like that!

I've been wondering about that for the longest time. These are MG titles I haven't heard of nor seen before, thanks for sharing them and your thoughts about each one. :)GatheringBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04477710897574769648noreply@blogger.com
