But when Mary, now going with the last name of Quinn, finds herself yearning for more, she is hired by the headmistresses of the academy to work for The Agency- a top secret detective agency exclusively for women agents.

Books4Hearts - Book Reviews: June 2012
http://books4hearts.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 23, 2012. Story Time" by Edward Bloor. Kate and her uncle, George, are regular kids. Kate is in eighth grade, Uncle George is in sixth. Kate is ready to go to Lincoln middle school and play Peter Pan in the play, and George is ready to learn things and invent things as well. And then Uncle George passes the entrance exam to the Whittaker Magnet School. I rather enjoyed this book. As a homeschooler, it fills me with a sort of righteousness when I read about the failings of the public school...

Books4Hearts - Book Reviews: "Geek Fantasy Novel" by E. Archer
http://books4hearts.blogspot.com/2012/05/geek-fantasy-novel-by-e-archer.html
Thursday, May 17, 2012. Geek Fantasy Novel" by E. Archer. As any aeronautical engineer will confirm, fairies do remarkably well in unicorn-drawn carriage crashes. Their strategy is simple: Keep to the center of teh carriage and fly with quivalent speed against the rapidly decreasing velocity of the vehicle. So Ralph focuses on his video game designing. But that's not all. Not even the narrator. I really did like this book a lot. It was some random novel that my mom picked up at the Salvation Army and...

Sue Lawson ~ Author: December 2011
http://suelawsonsblog.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Author, teacher and very slack blogger. Saturday, 31 December 2011. Things I am grateful for this year. I'm not a big one for new year celebrations. I try (! To approach each day, and if desperate, each hour as a fresh beginning, rather than seeing the changing of years as a time to make changes. I say try, as it doesn't always work. Generosity, laughter and support from friends and family. Enthusiastic and supportive students and teachers. Melbourne Writer's Festival Regional Tour. Posted by Sue Lawson.
