While I'm waiting . . .

for Mockingjay (The Final Book of The Hunger Games) to come out in August, I've been reading all sorts of things.
Least expected of all is a book I saw at the Children's Museum.
NurtureShock: New Thinking About Children.
Good book. Surpising Science. Not a how-to.
I talk more about it here, at MMW.
Let me know what you think if you read it - the book (or the blog post -whatever!)

Anyone else waiting for Mockingjay?
And what are you reading while you wait?

I'm definitely can't wait for Mockingjay! Let the countdown begin. I'm currently reading The Shack, but not sure how I feel about it yet. I'm hoping it gets more uplifting...

Um...I have a widget countdown on my blog for Mockingjay. :) So I guess I'm excited. My kids ask me everyday (because they don't check my blog) how much longer. Guess who gets to read it first though? That's right. They can get their own copy if they don't want to wait for mine. Go team...uh...guess I'll have to wait to decide that too. And yeah, I've read tons this summer to help me wait. Only the good Spy Young, Just One Wish, Once Upon a Marigold, Twice Upon a Marigold, 13th Reality (series), Imprints, Chocolate Roses, Awakening Avery, and the list goes on. :)

Also waiting.... In the meantime I finished The Maze Runner. Pretty good, though it sure did leave me hanging at the end. If I were you, I'd wait for the trilogy to be finished before I start. Now it's back to more "serious" reading-- Silas Marner (for book club).

Pre-ordered my Mockingjay in May or June. Amazon.com loves me. Trying to read a few things keep getting interupted. Now packing up most books.
