It's been several weeks, but the boys wanted to jump back into the book blogging memes with me. So today we share our summer smoothies (with grapes, blueberries, yogurt and a bit of ice cream for good measure) and good books!

About the Book (from the publisher) From the first moment Morgan can remember, Claire has always been there. Big sister and little brother. Cat and Mouse. They’ve always understood each other, saved each other, seen each other. And they stuck to their own personal code, unwritten but understood, that siblings were inseparable, that they had each other’s backs, no matter what. At least, they used to.
