Book Challenge




         The weather this weekend was gorgeous, and I didn't have the time to do the prompts over the weekend so I thought I would post something today about a book for my reading challenge.


          My reading challenge is one that Nikki found and we are doing the same one. It's made out to look like bingo board. When I am done reading a book off the card, I color it in. So far, I've only read 2 books off the challenge, but I have hope I will finish it this year :-)

          The book I picked up last week for the challenge is a book  recommended by a librarian. I told her I like YA and murder mystery or dystopian, but not so much romance. She put a book on hold for me and it came in the next day. It's called 'The Scandalous Sisterhood of Prickwillow Place' by Julie Berry.

There's a murderer on the loose—but that doesn't stop the girls of St. Etheldreda's from attempting to hide the death of their headmistress in this rollicking farce. 

The students of St. Etheldreda's School for Girls face a bothersome dilemma. Their irascible headmistress, Mrs. Plackett, and her surly brother, Mr. Godding, have been most inconveniently poisoned at Sunday dinner. Now the school will almost certainly be closed and the girls sent home—unless these seven very proper young ladies can hide the murders and convince their neighbors that nothing is wrong. 

The Scandalous Sisterhood of Prickwillow Place is a smart, hilarious Victorian romp, full of outrageous plot twists, mistaken identities, and mysterious happenings.


             It's suppose to be a murder mystery but funny...so we will see!
