Thanks to Jen over at www.teachmentortexts. and Kellee now at www.unleashingreaders.com for their take on this Monday meme first created by Sheila over at www.bookjourney.wordpress.com where we share what we've read over the past week.

This is our book club pick for the month of August. You can go here on Goodreads to read the summary.
Not sure what I will read after this. School will be in session so I may start something based on student inquiry. Thank you for stopping by and hope you have a great week of reading!
