June Review and July Preview

The start of summer means it's time for a little reading competition.  Only one of my kids is interested in reading as a part of a competition - and I don't want to push the other two, who read enough, but definitely at a slower (and some may argue, more enjoyable) pace.  As usual, I am also trying to read books off my own shelves rather than borrow too many from the library.  I haven't succeeded too well on this front.  I seem to just keep buying more books for my shelves and then going to the library!
