• Skippyjon Jones by Judy Schachner - found @ Alyce's At Home with Books (one of her Friday Finds from 11-7-08) - this sounds hilarious; I know it's for kids but I will be calling myself "Skippito Friskito" for days if not weeks!

• The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett - found @ Stuff as Dreams are Made on

Friday Finds {10-17-08}

The idea is to share, every Friday, about books that you’ve recently discovered (never heard of before) that sound really good!

Every Friday, those who have blogs will write a post at their own blog, and then come back and leave others a link to follow on that week’s “Friday Finds” post here at Should Be Reading. For those who don’t blog, you can just tell us about your “Friday Finds” in a comment on that week’s post.

Some of the books that have jumped out at me this week are all Teaser Tuesday books:

• misscz's- The Devil's Footprints by Amanda Stevens
  
• tanabata's- Grotesque by Natsuo Kirino
• Valerie's- A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth
• Dar's- The Heretic Queen by Michelle Moran
