I currently don't really have a librarian, but my primary school librarian was called 'Miss Rose' and was an absolute gem. She recommended me two books and I am going to re-read one of them:

- The Mysterious Howling by Maryrose Wood (Middle Grade, Magical Realism/Fantasy, #1 in a series)
- Midnight for Charlie Bone by Jenny Nimmo (Middle Grade, Fantasy, #1 in a series)**

**I will actually read the second book in the series if I choose this one, but that's the first one!

If you don't have a librarian, then please feel free to use one of those ones! If you are a librarian, please let us know if you recommend a book and then people can use that as well! I know this one can be tricky for some people!

It's definitely not an incredible book, but it was quite a nice light, summery read! An easy, quick one.

Okay, fair enough! :D Based on that recommendation I might read it over something a librarian would recommend if they were into classics like Atlas Shrugged or Billy Bud or something. I don't want to read something that is a chore. I only have so much time to read and I want to enjoy it, especially with how excited this challenge you and Jackie have put together makes me. :D

I'm so happy you like the idea! And yeah, it was super quick. Admittedly I read it when I was about 12, but it's still an interesting idea and there is quite a lot of character growth throughout the trilogy.
