Coming to the End of April



What a great month April has been.  I have won two books in the Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com) give-aways and I am looking forward to getting them in the mail.



The first one is a middle school read -- The Unbreakable Code (Book Scavenger, #2) by Jennifer Chambliss Bertman and the second is a murder mystery -- The Shattered Tree (a Bess Crawford Mystery) by Charles Todd

Something New for April



Something new for me in the month of April is that I was able to receive an advanced reading copy of this book from netgalley.com.

My review of Longburrow – Podkin, One-Ear by Kieran Larwood  ---  I give it five stars

In the land of Endeby, Podkin, Paz and Pook, young rabbits of the Munbury Warren must journey to escape the dangerous iron-clad Gorm.  Scramshank, the leader of the Gorm, can no longer be known as a rabbit, but only as an evil twisted iron-clad creature bent on destruction. Podkin’s story is a journey to discover who is friend or foe, and of coming of age and facing your greatest fears.  Will young Podkin fulfill his destiny?

I especially enjoyed the overall action of the story because of the details and its memorable characters. However, these same exploits may be too intense for younger readers.  If you are a fan of Redwall, you will love Podkin One-Ear.


My Tea with this read is a cup of hot  Sweet Orange Spice loose tea.  It is a black tea with the sweet taste of mandarin oranges, cinnamon and clove buds from Tea Forte’.
