This Weeks Topic:

 If you could travel back in time to purchase the first printing of a specific novel, what 

book would that be? (submitted by Billy @ Coffee Addicted Writer)

I would have to say the first book in the Nancy Drew series because that was the book I first fell  in love with reading. She made me want to solve mysteries and search for the truth.

So, What about you? What book would you go back in time for?  If so, Please Share.

And as always, have a great Friday.

 Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)

Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teas.

Mini Reviews

This is going to be a post with possible two to four short reviews on smaller books that either have the same kind of topics or genres. I will be giving each book their own review as well as rating!

Title: Sophia Writes To Her Bully

Author: Dr. Mildred D. Peyton
Category: Children/Bullying
Pub. Date: 02/21/2017
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
Format: Paperback
Pages: 20
ISBN#: 1543276458

Synopsis: 

Sophia experiences verbal and social (also referred to as relational) bullying from her classmates during recess. Whenever Sophia attempts to play with a group of students from her fourth-grade class, she is rejected; Amber also calls her an inappropriate name. Only when Sophia takes action by confronting her bully with a letter does her victimization finally end. Want to know what Sophia was being called and how her classmates treated her? Read Sophia Writes to Her Bully and find out what her letter is all about! Social exclusion is a form of bullying experienced by some children. When it occurs, they feel isolated, alone, and humiliated. It's important for parents to be informed and talk with their children about all types of bullying (e.g., verbal, physical, social/relational, and cyberbullying) so they're better equipped to intervene or prevent their child from bullying others or being a victim of bullying.

This Weeks Topic:
Do you take notes about the book you are reading as you read?
(submitted by Elizabeth @ Silver's Reviews)

Well I do sometimes. It depends on if I am reading on kindle I book mark places and add
little notes as to why. But if I am holding an actual book I don't all the time. But I do add
sticking notes sometimes.

 So, What about you? Do you take notes?  If so, Please Share.

And as always, have a great Friday.
