This was good one with quite a few twists. I may have enjoyed it even more if it wasn’t broken up into 2 different borrows for me. lol! Finished before midnight to get it on my 2025 read list!

Such bravery and determination was shown by these 9 French resistance women working together to get away from Ravensbrook concentration camp and back to France. The story was based upon the author’s great aunt.

I really wanted to finish this book over break but my library loan ended and I’m back on the waitlist. Good so far.

I love a good dystopian book and this one for YA caught my attention from the beginning. It was a solid 4 for me.

Finished this book again with my class the day before winter break. Always a favorite!

3.5 (.5 extra for the beautiful peaceful feeling he gave me with nature descriptions)

Funny, but for me I really enjoyed the nature parts of the book, but as soon as it turned romantic I was out. Also, I thought Hilly was much older so my brain couldn’t wrap around it. Mystery was meh.

I loved the premise of this book- one child three scenarios with three different names a birth. Each story line has so much to teach the reader.

This book surprised me. Better than I thought it would be. Don’t judge a book by its cover.

I enjoyed this book and learning about the deaf community, but I’m not really a football fan so reading about the play by play of each game was often repetitive. It was needed for the story to see growth, but that part was not as interesting to me.

This book was an interesting look at the disorder of sociopathy. I’m interested to know if Patric is currently working in the field.

A good reminder to declutter and reorganize spaces on a more regular basis. A bit repetitive but humorous too.

This book played out very differently than expected for me. I appreciated the character of Sammy and the artistic endeavors of Patch.

Annoying much of the time

Ok, but now I have to finish the series

Ok enough to go on to the second. Young adult love story

I didn’t like this book at first but parts of it grew on me. Still thinking about the last 1/3 and whether it was worth the read.

This book reminded me of The Measure and I liked how all of the people fit together at the end. Good overall. 3.5. Maybe rounding up to 4.

Hmmm, this one left me satisfied. It was a bit sad but also made me think a lot.

This one was interesting and heart-felt. Had a good cry at the end. Interesting perspective on dying and crossing

Another predictable Freida. Just trying to complete this series. It was ok- short story to tide over the fans between novels

I had trouble getting into this book because I was listening and didn’t understand the format. Partway in I reread the description and it made much more sense and came together.

I listened to this one the first time and Biggi gave it to me for my birthday so I read it. Enjoyed it just as much the second time.

Keep thinking about how to rate this book. It wasn’t bad but didn’t always flow. 3.5?

Based on true facts about the saving of 108 French Jewish children during WWII. Sad but good read.
