My Book List for June (and Probably July)

This has been a record reading year for me. I have devoured books in 2016 and am still going strong. I have already read 24 out of my yearly goal of 25 books. Now I want to see if I can get 52 books read this year. I have a huge new stack of books waiting and am going to do all I can to get through as many of them as I can in June. But, likely, these books will carry into July, as well. So what am I reading this summer?

The House on Tradd Street by Karen White

Me Before You by Jojo Moyes

Glory Over Everything: Beyond the Kitchen House by Kathleen Grissom

(I've been waiting for this sequel for years!)

The Shell Seekers by Rosamund Pilcher

Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty

Necessary Lies by Diane Chamberlain

The Boston Girl by Anita Diamond

The Best Yes by Lysa Terkeurst

ABCya

Eli's reading resource teacher shared a website with me yesterday that I would like to pass along. It's called ABCya . There are separate educational sections with fantastic games for ages kindergarten through 5th grade. I browsed the 2nd grade level, and it includes age-appropriate games about Letters, Numbers, Shapes, Geometry, Patterns, Mouse Manipulation, Art and Holiday games. There are lots and lots of fun and creative games for children to play. They are fun, but oh, so educational. Eli's favorite, in his short time playing it, was Create a Car . A lot of the games also have Apps available for purchase (99 cents for most of them) for the iPad and iPhone. I have been looking for another free website for games similar to Starfall , for some time. I think I have found it. I can feel confident having Eli and Brynne play these games.
