You’ve already seen the books I read in July, and I thought today I’d continue telling you about my summertime reading! Not quite as many books this month since I’ve been spending some time building a shed! Anyways, I will be linking to reviews or to amazon links to make it easy in case you want to get them yourself! 🙂 Hurts you none, is MUCH appreciated if you do buy, and it helps me out!
Books read for Reviews
The Science of Babies. Gives you the language needed to talk with your children, and you can add your own social context/faith to the conversation.
Listen to the language of the trees. I love informative picture books, and this one does a good job.
Future Worlds. A hugely fun book that you can use to develop critical thinking skills in your children, or a love of “can I be a part of that future possibility”.
Don’t Worry, Be Ha-Pea. Food + puns = a fun book.
The Button Pusher. I thought this a well-done book about ADHD and how hard it is to cope with it at times, but good helps and parental support make it easier.
Books read for fun
The Scrivener’s Bones. Hubsters LOVED Alcatraz vs the Evil Librarians so promptly ordered the next in the series. So as he finished it (and then ordered the next one) I get to read the one he finished! I may get through more of this series by the end of the month. FUN books. Get them for your middle-schoolers! 🙂 I find it immensely humourous how much he likes them and insists on getting the next as soon as he’s done the last! 🙂
Lola is Missing. A mystery, where they are trying to find a missing child. Started it last month! Reading it on Kindle. I’m finding the characters interesting and I’m hoping they find the child. I’ll be updating when I’ve finished!
Gentle and Lowly. What a fantastic journey into the heart of Christ. I so STRONGLY recommend that you get this book and delve deeply in his heart. See Christ more clearly, love God more dearly.
Time of the Twins. I admittedly didn’t care for this book and will most likely return it (on audible). Hubsters was surprised that I didn’t care for it as he knows the series and expected that I would.
How about you?
What books have kept you engaged with your summertime reading? Anything that you would recommend? If so, why?
Sounds like you still had some reads you enjoyed this month. Glad you are getting that shed done, also.
it’s still a work in progress, but it’s coming along well.
