August Reads. Summertime and reading seem to go hand-in-hand. Here are some of the books from the stack I was able to read last month.
The Westing Game is a mystery with a classic feel. In his will, a billionaire calls together his heirs and thrusts them into a puzzling game. Whoever unravels his clues will gain a fortune.
The Elemental Artifact unveils a world in which Elementals live alongside humans. Anni’s adventure unfolds like a mystery. Hints and red herrings abound. And the friends she makes are so much fun. Especially Squirt!
The Ruins of Gorlan is the first book in the epic Ranger’s Apprentice series. I’ve had reading friends recommend this to me for years. Not sure why I waited so long to take the plunge. I’m hooked.

#amreading: Book Flags
Quotable. When I’m reading, it’s almost always with a pencil in hand, a highlighter nearby, and a packet of book flags within reach. I like to glean quotable lines for GoodReads and for tweeting. Because it’s fun to share good writing with other readers!
BYWAYS: Signature Seals
Personal Touch. In the land of Liberty, citizens add their seal to official documents. A design’s seal is unique … and usually of personal significance to the person who carries it. Do you recognize this seal?
