January Meeting
Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery
I reread the first three books in the series including Anne of Avonlea and Anne of the Island. They were actually more wonderful than I had remembered and completely put me in the little girl spirit for the holidays.
Here's the B&N Description: "Precocious, talkative Anne comes from an orphanage to live on a Canadian farm, where the lively 11-year-old transforms her guardians' placid world with her fanciful chatter and innocent mischief. Anne's goodwill, intelligence, and joie de vivre ultimately endear her to her friends and neighbors as well as readers everywhere."
I also read The Hunger Games trilogy and was completely hooked.
B&N says:
"Could you survive on your own, in the wild, with everyone out to make sure you don't live to see the morning?
In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the Games. But Katniss has been close to dead before-and survival"
