...

First off, I just read Dewey The Library Cat and loved it! It was so charming! If you like it, you would also probably enjoy Marley: A dog like no other. I found them rather similar. Both of those that I have read are the versions of the book that have been adapted for kids. Dewey the Library Cat for adults is just called Dewey, I think...but whatever. Anyway, I would highly recommend it. Now I am going to read The Hobbit.

I discovered that the Ramona books are being made into a movie that comes out July 23rd. Judging by what I have seen from the previews, it looks like there are a few scenes that never happened in any of the books (I should know, I have read all the Ramona books multiple times--love them!) which makes me nervous. Why ruin such a marvelous book? Plus, the girl playing Beezus (Ramona's sister, in case you didn't know) is Selena Gomez, which in my opinion doesn't seem to fit. (P.S.--Did you know Selena Gomez was on Barney when she was little? I think that is hilarious.) But oh well. The world is not perfect.

Also, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader movie comes out around Christmas time I think. I'm terrified because Prince Caspian was absolutely horrible. It didn't follow the book at all. Kind of fun to watch, but it took important stuff out and added pointless stuff that never happened in.

Plus, the first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows comes out sometime in November!
