Good Monday morning! Thanks for stopping by. I got a lot of reading and reviewing accomplished last week. Yay!
I wrote up my review of Scent of the Missing: Love and Partnership with a Search and Rescue Dog by Susannnah Charlson. If you love dogs, you definitely have to check this one out! I also read and reviewed Are You There, Vodka? It's Me Chelsea by Chelsea Handler. This one is very funny if you're not easily offended! Finally, I read and reviewed two books in a children's series called Alby and the Cat by Leanne Davidson. I love these books because one of the main characters is a guide dog, so the kids learn about how guide dogs work and what it's like to be blind. I'm hosting a giveaway of the Alby and the Cat books at Just Playin' Around.

Love Chelsea Handler -- I definitely need to read her book!
ReplyDeleteYou read such an interesting variety of books! Have a great vacation. My Monday Report is here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite books is I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, but I've never read anything else by Maya Angelou. I've heard she considers her "daughter" Oprah!
ReplyDeleteHave a great reading week.

Have a wonderful vacation! Scent of the Missings sounds great.
ReplyDeleteChelsea Handler's books are hilarious! If you like her's then you should check out Kathy Griffin's autobiography as well, it's very good. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteScent Of The Missing is one I would like to try as animals really touch my heart.
