The Heir by Kiera Cass

The Art of Lainey by Paula Stokes

The Start of Me and You by Emery Lord

I Remember You by Cathleen Davitt Bell

Never Never by Colleen Hoover, Tarryn Fisher

Here’s some of my favorites that you should read!

    My sister HIGHLY recommended The Selection series to me and I have downloaded a sample. I am hoping to read that too this summer. I hope I will be able to! The Summer I Turned Pretty was SO amazing! I don't think I ever read a book about two siblings liking the same girl. I love who she ended up with and was rooting for them from the get go! So glad it ended the way it did! You seem to like the same genre of books as me so I will DEF be adding the books you recommended on your want to read list to mine too! I love a good YA novel =)

      Yay Molly!!! I'm so happy you'll find some new books. I'll warn you though, they are in the Young Adult section…because we're all young adults, right?!

    Just remembered a good book you might like: Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs. Uses vintage odd photos to tell an unusual story. There's 2 books in the series so far, but I would expect a third one to be coming. It's a really good book!

Pizza Co. practices math skills like: one-to-one correspondence, subtraction, money, and fractions. I absolutely LOVE that we get to work on basic subtraction and fractions (put toppings on half of the pie). Another thing I LOVE about this game is that I'm able to put it on junior mode so she can do most of it with just a little assistance.

This is going to be a favorite game for a long time!!
