About 52 pages into Harriet the Spy. It’s so delightful! I can’t believe I never read this when I was a kid!
The best part? It’s an older copy and the pages! They smell like my CHILDHOOD. Nostaglia much? *sigh*
Back to it!

Harriet the Spy is one of my all time favorite books of all time. I really really love it. Really. I discovered it at a thrift store as a kid and have reread it dozens of times since then. I'm so glad to hear that you are enjoying it. Don't you just love Ole Golly?
I loved Harriet the Spy. I'm reading my much-battered but much-beloved copy of The Hobbit. I always used to read it when I was home sick from school Talk about nostalgia!'
Keep up the good work
I absolutely love the smell of old books!
When I was going through a V. C. Andrews phase in 6th grade I was constantly wearing watermelon chap stick. I have flashbacks every time I smell fruit chapstick and old books. I love it!
Good luck!
I love books that have that smell! I wish my parents would give up my childhood books and give them to me.
Oh wow, it's been YEARS since I read Harriet the Spy… I remember really enjoying it!
Happy Reading!
oh what a sweet post! I don't think I read this as a kid, either.
Oooh, I loved Harriet the Spy. I haven't read it in years but it was one of my favorite books as a child. Glad you're enjoying it!
My 4th grade teacher read that book out loud to us–I then read it myself many,many times as a child. Always was one of my favorites. There is a sequel to it, you know? I remember liking it too, but not as well as Harriet the first!

I never read Harriet the Spy when I was little either! I hated the movie, and my sister loved it, so I think that's why I boycotted the book.
Oh how I envy you right now!
It is a great book, huh? I still have my copy!
what a great book! You are doing great.
I loved that book when I was younger and recently re-read it. I forgot how good it was!
