So so so good! Astrid is an amazing character. <br />Jo Knowles is brilliant! I just got Jackie Chan approved from Netgalley- I cannot wait to get to it!<br />You are the second person to mention Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie- this book is so special. Glad it is making the rounds :) <br />Lisa Schroeder and Bone are HUGE hits in my classroom. I need to read a Schroeder and I've only read the first Bone- I really must get a-readin'. <br /><br />Happy reading this week :) <br />Kellee Kellee Moye (@kelleemoye)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11912740016918990989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041454921701226810.post-83806777417961683672013-07-29T19:34:43.778-05:002013-07-29T19:34:43.778-05:00Thanks for the recommendations.

Loved it too! I just finished The Dream Thieves and was absolutely captivated. Enjoy! I look forward to this new Jo Knowles title.

I am jealous that you have Dream Thieves, and considered trying to get it, but decided to stick with the audio format. I hope it's awesome! One of these days I need to start the Assassins series. I am not sure why I haven't already.

I think she captured grief in such a real way. I sobbed throughout the book because I connected so much with the main character.
