The great thing about our group of Quirky Girls is that we love to read a wide variety of books. Here’s a little taste of what we are reading right now:

ChaucerianGirl is reading The Ghosts on 87th Lane by M.L. Woelm

“I addressed the ghost in a clear voice, with just enough authority to let it know I meant business. ‘Sorry, that doesn’t impress me any longer. You’ll have to do better than that.'”

Izzybella is reading Hunting Ground by Patricia Briggs

“My grandfather would have loved to have met you,” he told her huskily. “He would have called you ‘She Moves Trees Out of His Path.'”

She looked lost, but his da laughed. He’d known the old man, too.

“He called me ‘He Who Must Run into Trees,'” Charles explained, and in a spirit of honesty, a need for his mate to know who he was, he continued, “or sometimes ‘Running Eagle.'”

“‘Running Eagle’?” Anna puzzled it over, frowning at him. “What’s wrong with that?”

“Too stupid to fly,” murmured his father with a little smile.”

Margot is reading Going Bovine by Libba Bray

I stare at her. “Who . . . who are you?”

The room grows brighter with her smile. “I’m Dulcie. Pleased to meet you.”

“My hallucination has a name.”

Molly is reading A Tree Grows In Brooklyn by Betty Smith

“It doesn’t take long to write things of which you know nothing. When you write of actual things, it takes longer, because you have to live them first.” – Pg. 288 – A Tree Grows In Brooklyn by Betty Smith

By looking at our covers you might think we are all going through a dark phase. We’re not. We’re still as upbeat as ever. We just happen to be reading books with dark covers.

What about your reading? What do the covers of your books look like?
