Annie Barrows

I read Annie Barrows book for children Ivy and Bean.  She has a series about Ivy and Bean. I'm not that into children's literature but I was reviewing her other book, The Truth About Us, for my book club.  Most people loved The Truth About Us, just like I did when I first read it several months back. So how does it feel to know that a room full of 30 people (minus one) loved a book you recommended?  Good.  It feels good.  And it was a good book with great character development and a good grasp of how things were in 1938.  I led the review with some basic information about the author and about current events in 1938.  We had a good discussion and now my job as book club reviewer is done for now.  Next month we're reading The Martian. I guess there is a movie coming out which is why I have to buy the book instead of borrow it from the library.  And it will be my turn to bring treats.  Maybe I will have to come up with some Martian treats.
