so-soBased on the movie the Goonies I had high hopes. The plot was thin but I enjoyed the quick read. I was a bit disappointed that when a climax was happening the authors chose to skip the confrontation and instead allude to what happened.
pickAva ends up at an exclusive boarding school and learns of her own connection to Greek mythology.
Think something like Percy Jackson with a focus on the female characters in mythology who are overlooked or portrayed as monsters when they use their power. Maybe it‘s time for the stories to be told from their perspectives! This is book one of a new series.

Found a copy of third one and will get started. Should wrap it up and explain it all!
pickThis was such a cute middle grade book!
The book had excellent themes which were appropriate for the age range (ages 8+). It centered around friendship and teamwork. I loved that they were a ragtag basketball team and that each member brought something special to the team.
The characters were adorable. I loved Bermudez.

Curlfriends is my Passport pick for the third nine weeks of school. Checking it out from the school library shows my scholars that I not only care about our library but I also love to read what they are reading.
It‘s been quite a while since I read this book with year in the title, but I remember enjoying each of Peck‘s books that I‘ve read. Additionally, this was the Newbery Medal winner for 2001.
Join us in sharing a middle grade book today!

I loved this dual timeline historical fiction that brought attention to the Holodomor famine in Ukraine.
All are invited to play along, can you think of a title that applies?!
