It seems that my last few Thursday Rereads weren't actually written & posted on Thursday, so I thought I would make sure to read this week's title this morning and have the review posted today!

Yep, today's reread marks the 16th and final installment in the Rotten School series by bestselling author R.L. Stine, titled "Dumb Clucks."

If you're not already familiar with the series, I'll give you a brief (and final) catch up. The Rotten School books are set at a boarding school called Rotten School, and centers on 4th-grader Bernie Bridges, who has a bad habit of scheme his classmates out of money.

"Dumb Clucks" kicks off with Bernie trying to sell his friends t-shirts of the popular cartoon Tweenage Mutant Ninja Tadpoles, but he is shocked to learn that they no longer like the cartoon. What do they now like? Well, they like a new series called Stupid Chicken. Desperate to get rid of his t-shirts, Bernie attempts to sell them to the first-graders, but sadly the first-graders are fans of Stupid Chicken too.

To make matters worse, Parent's Day is just around the corner, and Headmaster Upchuck gives Bernie the responsibility of making sure that the campus is quite until Parent's Day, which isn't an easy task to do with all the Stupid Chicken craziness. And if anything goes wrong, Bernie has to pack his bags and leave Rotten School ...forever!

If you caught my other Spring Reads posts yesterday, you would know that I've taken an interest in the new fad of adult coloring books. Coloring is supposed to help get rid of stress and at the same time be a creative outlet.

Now available from Zondervan is Wonders Of Creation: Illustrations to Color and Inspire by Cindy Wilde and Pialada Phuapradit.

The 96-page coloring book kicks off with a two-page introduction, after that the rest of the pages are full of scenes of nature and illustrations of different creatures.

"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up." - Pablo Picasso

It seems that coloring books are now the "in" thing for adults. You can't go into a department store without seeing dozens of different "adult coloring books" everywhere. Just like any other craft/art hobby, coloring can hep reduce stress and relax your soul.

I've been interested in trying one of these coloring books out, and luckily for me, I've recently received three different coloring books to review.

The first coloring I received is called Restore My Soul: A Coloring Book Devotional Journey by Ann-Margret Hovsepian, featuring 40 devotions with coloring pages.

Each devotional page starts out with a Bible verse followed by a short essay, where she talks about stress and other life's problems. On the other pages next to the devotionals are detailed illustrations with a religious theme.

There's nothing better to do on a rainy Spring day than to read an intriguing novel. Well, at least that's what I did over the weekend, when I took the time to sit down and read The Inheritance by Michael Phillips, the author of over 70 titles. My grandmother has read many of the author's books, which is one of the reasons why I wanted to review this one.

Set on the Shetland Islands, The Inheritance centers on the death of the Macgregor Tulloch, the patriarch of the clan of Whales Reef, which sends the community into chaos as he had no will. Everyone thought Tulloch would leave everything to his grandnephew, but with no will in sight that is never going to happen. Tulloch's estate covers almost the entire island, and David's cousin Hardy is more than willing to to claim it as his own.

This is where Loni Ford comes into the story, a woman who has found success working for an investment firm in Washington, D.C.. Out of nowhere she receives a letter from Scotland that will forever change her
