The Things You Can Read: It's Monday What Are You Reading: August 12, 2013

The Things You Can Read welcomes you and thanks you for your readership. We, here at The Things You Can Read, ask your help, if you visit our site regularly, please follow us either via email or Google Friend Connect. Launched on June 7, 2012, our site has already attracted a great deal of attention. One of the goals of the site is to feature reviews of Children's Picture Books, Young Adult novels and Adult Literary Fiction/Nonfiction. A second goal for the blog is to be a resource for teachers of English and writing--with examples of student created writing, writing tips, resource links, and the opportunity to pick the brain of a seasoned English teacher. To spice things up...every now and then, we'll also include random quotes and thoughts on education and life in general, but our ultimate goal is to reach out into the blogosphere and be a "Book Whisperer" and "Writing Whisperer" to children and adults of all ages. Thank you for your readership. Here is to a lifetime filled with reading and writing.

Love your bookmobile! I just saw a story on the morning news about a librarian in Seattle who bikes it downtown to a Farmers Market once a week and pulls something behind him filled with books, so that he may bring the library to the people who don't get a chance to go to it. Sounds like a great idea.
I looked up Burial Rites and it seems like an intriguing premise, and set in Iceland, that adds dimension to the mood of the story. Will see what your review is when you get back from the beach--enjoy.
