Jennifer Brundage added The Luckiest Girl (An Avon Camelot Book) to her Bookshelf
Jennifer said, "I adore Beverly Cleary, and have recently been on a kick re-reading her 'teen' books- this one was especially amusing. What I so admire about these books is the way in which Clearly captured the era- late 1950s- with admittedly a poignant innocence lost i"

Jennifer Brundage added Charlotte's Web (paper-over-board) to her Bookshelf

Jennifer Brundage added The Lion's Paw to her Bookshelf

Jennifer Brundage added Chasing Vermeer to her Bookshelf
Jennifer said, "It took me a few years to get around to reading this book, in spite of the ever alluring draw of Helquist's illustrations~ being a huge Lemony Snicket fan, I bought "Vermeer" as soon as it came out, solely because I assumed any book Helquist would choose"

Jennifer Brundage added Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator to her Bookshelf
Jennifer said, "This was a page turner! I finished it in one sitting. The San Francisco setting is appropriately evocative for the ghost story/mystery, and Gilda is a 'spunky', if- oddly, I thought- not always entirely likeable protagonist- perhaps this makes her more in"
