  3. I've seen lots about The Unseemly Education of Anne Merchant (that title reminds me of Mara Dyer ...). I should check it out! How do you find your reading with your little ones? You have a lot of review books! I got a freebie of Wanderdust a long while ago ... I love that cover! AND another blogger sent me The Madman's Daughter. I have it on my list to read this year! Enjoy all the books!
