May 18, 2015 Alyson Beecher

It's Monday! What are you reading? is hosted by Sheila of Book Journey.  Jen from Teach Mentor Texts and Kellee and Ricki from Unleashing Readers have adapted it to focus on Picture Books to Young Adult Books.

It has been weeks since I posted a "What Are You Reading?" post. I have been reading. it's just been a very unusual time in my life. After taking a break, it has made me think about how I might want to tweak this post. This week, I am going to play catch up and share some books that you might want to add to your "TBR" pile.  

Here's what jumped out of the stack for me:

And check out the new Young Adult section. Here is what Carolyn's been reading.
