I am rereading Navigating Early for the 3rd time in preparation for the TFG-F2F this January. You are welcome to join the discussion and the activities.
Loving Navigating Early so far! But I'm totally intrigued at the parallelisms. Can't wait to read how it ends. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm really happy that you loved this! :)
DeleteMommy L, I am loving Navigating Early. I have Moon Over Manifest which I plan to read right after Early. It's been a while since I read a middle grade book, and I kinda miss how these stories make me feel: contented and happy. :)
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to read MOM, too. Maybe, next month naman. :)
