    The votes are in and we have our next batch of books for 2018! Woo-hoo! :) Like I've been doing the last couple of times, I am posting the next few months (May-August) all at once, so we can all get these books on hold at our libraries in time. :) The book we will be reading for June 2018 is The Museum of Extraordinary Things by Alice Hoffman. Please label spoilers or even type them in white like I just did right here (highlight that blank space) so that a person has to highlight it to read it.

    I'm looking forward to this one because a goal I have for this year is to read authors I've never read and Alice Hoffman is one of them!

    This came to me right away at our library. I finished it in a couple of days. I absolutely loved it!

    I liked it a lot and especially liked all the NYC references about places I knew and the bits on how NYC once was. I am always happy to read books that have accurate descriptions of places and in particular references to former times.

    I just borrowed this tonight. I just started listening to it. All I could get was the audio book. Judith Light is one of the narrators!
