Friday Five ~ What I’m Reading

1. Crispin: The Cross of Lead by Avi

Here’s the deal: in order to discuss literature with Levi, I have to have read it. Crispin is up for discussion next week.

2. Lila: A Novel by Marilynne Robinson

I started this one a while ago then my mom and sister borrowed it before I had finished. Now it’s my turn again!

3. Norms and Nobility: A Treatise on Education by David Hicks

Norms and Nobility has been on my to-read list for a long time now. Since the author is speaking at the upcoming CiRCE Pacific Northwest Regional Conference, I figured I should have at least a few chapters read by then.

4. The Greater Journey: Americans in Paris by David McCullough

This non-fiction narrative of the adventurous American artists, writers, doctors, politicians, and others who set off for Paris in the years between 1830 and 1900 was our ChocLit Guild book club selection for last month. Oops.

5. Honey for a Teen’s Heart by Gladys Hunt

I have some serious things to share about this one in a post of its own. For now: two thumbs up.

What are you reading this week?
