Currently Reading: The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate
by Jacqueline Kelly
Pages: 352
Genre: Young Adult

I have been reading more young adult fiction lately, I guess I think my brain needs a rest from the serious stuff.

I am more than half way through this, and it seems charming enough. Not sure what the plot is though, or if there is one.

Calpurnia is a nearly 12 year old female who is the middle child (the only girl) of 7 siblings. She is coming of age in Texas in the year 1899 where corsets and 'coming out' are the norm. Calpurnia wants none of it, she fancies herself a naturalist and loves bugs, plants and her grandfather, who is also a Scientist of some sort.

Currently Reading:
When The Heart Cries by Cindy Woodsmall
(Sister's of the Quilt - Book 1)

Wasn't too sure about this one, I've never read an 'Amish' novel before (seen movies though). I have to say, I'm pretty blown away by it, I had no idea this was going to be so...'involved'. It was pretty much go from chapter 2.



This Week:
The Last Song - Nicholas Sparks
