My reading for Week 12 of It's Monday! What are you reading? was dominated by picture books. I'm making a conscious effort to browse the picture book shelves at the library and check more of them out. I'm happy to find authors I've never heard of before, pull books off the shelf that are not brand new, and discover books that I might be able to use in my library program.
As for the chapter book I finished this week, I was told that Seraphina was a standalone book (and everyone who heard the news -- including myself -- were rather pleased with that news) but after reading it, I realize there's so going to be a sequel! I'm not complaining, really, because it was a great fantasy book with a hint of innocent romance, but I can't help but wonder if anyone will write a story that only requires one book to tell it? Please? Somebody?
