Akata Witch (The Nsibidi Scripts, #1)

Jessica
Jessica is starting Circus Mirandus
Recommended by the clerks at Bank Street Bookstore, who say middle grades kids love this book, but it's not my cup of tea. I'm realizing I dislike the creepiness of circus genre overall, and the contrived-ness of this book in particular.

Jessica is starting Circus Mirandus
Trying to finish this because it was highly recommended by the clerks at Bank Street Bookstore, but I just...can't. Turns out I hate all circuses, even (especially?) magic ones.

abandoned. What's the point of reading about such unhappy and unlikeable people?

One day I will finish this book, and somehow remember what it says. Today is not that day.

Jessica is on page 321 of 496 of The Lost Children of Wilder: The Epic Struggle to Change Foster Care
Never knew that a book about court cases could be a page-turner, but this one is!

Jessica is on page 147 of 256 of School, Drool, and Other Daily Disasters (Justin Case, #1)
As a kid, I was as nerve-wracked as Justin. He would have made it easier to laugh about.

School, Drool, and Other Daily Disasters (Justin Case, #1)

Jessica
Jessica is on page 109 of 229 of My Garden
Enjoying Kincaid's adventures at the Chelsea flower show, especially after watching a Helen Mirren movie that gives a good feel for Britain's garden-mania (it's about a prisoner whose thumb was so green he and his friends were able to enter a garden in England's annual competition)
