Beach Time

I just returned from two weeks at the beach in Maine. It was a wonderful place to sit in front of the ocean and read. I was also able to indulge in one of my other hobbies - photography. Here is a photo I took of the sunrise one morning. I had to be ready by 5:25 AM!

I am now reading Addie on the Inside by James Howe. It is a companion to another book he wrote called The Misfits. Here's what it's about- 
"Outspoken thirteen-year-old Addie Carle learns about love, loss, and staying true to herself as she navigates seventh grade, enjoys a visit from her grandmother, fights with her boyfriend, and endures gossip and meanness from her former best friend."
If you are a fan of realistic fiction and novels in verse, this book's for you!
