The Roving Reader


As soon as I saw this one arrive at the store I thought....I KNOW that cover...why do I know that cover?  Turns out it's the sequel to a book I purchased (umm, last year...ahem) that looked oh-so-bookishly fun (Fly By Night) and well, this one reeks of potential as well.  Opinions anyone?  Have you read the first book by chance?

  2. The first book was one of my favorites of 7th grade - I'm rather jealous that you have a copy of the sequel. :)
