Comment: I just couldn’t get into Jemima J at all.  After 48 pages, I decided to move on to something else.  I did read another few chapters of Son of Neptune to the boys before bed.  It’s really getting good.  And I read the entirety of Hater this afternoon.  Can’t wait to read the second book.

Comments: I got in some good reading time in the morning and this evening before bed.  The boys hold my attention during the day, so I think this will be my pattern for the week.  I am excited to finish the Vampire Academy series.  I should be able to do it tomorrow.  And then move on to other books.
