Welcome to Litsy!

This quote sums up what I liked best about this book--I think it did a good job at introducing the very real problems often brought about by gentrification and the privilege of the upper-class. I did find the book to be a bit too simplistic and predictable for my tastes, but it was hard to remove myself as an adult city-dweller. Read this for my book club...I know already a few of the kids really love it. Should be a good discussion!

I'm off work today. I did some chores. I bought cool stuff. I'm roasting potatoes. Just made a strawberry mango cranberry smoothie. It's 71° and so bright I might get a sunburn. This is the first day I get to take advantage of my porch swing, and it's the middle of February! (Thanks, global warming! 🌞) I've earned this. #freebie #riotgrams

Sometimes you gotta adult while reading middle grade fiction. Here are my #booksandtreats: Malbec, pita crackers, and TJ's tzatziki. My reading has been so scattered and infrequent lately, this snack does make me feel a little better. #riotgrams
