Almost finished with "A Mermaid in Chelsea Creek." Enjoying it a lot more than I expected to. The scene where the main character first meets the cranky Polish mermaid who has been waiting for her in the filthy, tiny creek was so delightful I had to read it out loud to G. (I oppress everyone in my life with read-out-loud moments. You have been warned.)

I am also reading "Coraline" aloud to the kids. I picked it because it was short and on hand and and creepy and we are in a phase of loving creepy things, a trend that will only pick up as we approach Halloween. Apparently it is not creepy enough, though -- it is an incredibly reliable tool to help them fall asleep. We'll see how the next book goes. We should finish this one tonight.
