Ok…this one is strange. The nameless narrator is on the run with $168,000 in cash and not much else. Who is he? What is he running from? Where is he going? It‘s a short book, but the answers appear close to the end. Hard to put down and a weird conclusion. I liked it though and I found its strangeness rather interesting.

Ruthiella Sounds intriguing! 🤔 1w

4 ⭐ Susan Verde and Peter Reynolds are a bestselling team for a reason. Their books are colorful and heartfelt and have an important message that all kids need to hear. The message in this book is that “I am me” no matter what. That everyone is different and that‘s exactly the way it should be. That everyone is unique and have the things that make them special. And that no matter who you are or how you look or how you act I am me and you are you

This was just not for me. It was slow to get anywhere. I hated the characters. I felt like it just went in circles to go nowhere. Just not a fan of this one. Definitely a pass for me.

“'I liked the beautiful names and funny names you thought of for me,' she told the class. 'But I realized that I liked my name best, so I chose it again. Korean names mean something. Unhei means grace.'“
