A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett
Released: 1905

You guys should totally check out this book. It’s way new.

Naw, I’m kidding. It’s like three thousand years old. This is the kind of story I could see reading to my kids, half a chapter each bedtime. I cannot see myself ever having wanted to read this before now, even though it’s intended for people much younger than I. After all, I started it in April and just finished it the other day. I found the middle of it to be dreadfully uneventful. But I am not seriously writing a review for This Book. I just wanted you guys to know that I finally read it and it was pretty cute.
