This was such an interesting story! I was not expecting the supernatural elements, and I found them very intriguing. Lala lives in a sundown town in Texas, and things are becoming volatile as an apartment building meant to be more inclusive is being ...more |

Actual rating: 3.75 I was so excited about a new Julie Berry book, but this didn't quite hit for me. I thought the premise was really intriguing, but the story moved so incredibly slowly for the first 2/3 of the book. If it wasn't Julie Berry, I hones ...more |

I have been thinking about this book all week since finishing it. I ultimately give it a five-star rating because I feel like this story is very effective in its premise. This book is about a reality show where death row inmates who are between the a ...more |

| This book was full of twists and turns, and I had no idea where it was going to end up. I was thrilled to read a book set in Estonia, a country about which I know almost nothing. I loved learning about their culture, and it sent me on a deep dive to ...more | |

| Despite reading the synopsis, I was unprepared for how sad this book would be. This is a story about the consequences of keeping secrets, whether they are mostly harmless, like forging your parents' signature so you can audition for all-county band, ...more | |

Honestly, this book had me curious with the comparison to The Goonies and Stranger Things - two of my favorite things. This is a story about friendship and overcoming fear of the "other." The author used an actual historical event—the government takin ...more |

“Just because a book is considered “children’s literature”, doesn’t mean it’s childish. Many of my favorite books are written for children! A good story is a good story, and you will find that you enjoy many well-written books just as much (if not more) than your children.”

“Our aim in education is to give a full life. We owe it to them to initiate an immense number of interests. Life should be all living, and not merely a tedious passing of time; not all doing or all feeling or all thinking - the strain would be too great - but, all living; that is to say, we should be in touch wherever we go, whatever we hear, whatever we see, with some manner of vital interest. ~ Charlotte Mason”

“The question is not, — how much does the youth know? When he has finished his education — but how much does he care? And about how many orders of things does he care? In fact, how large is the room in which he finds his feet set? And, therefore, how full is the life he has before him?” ~ Charlotte Mason”
