To start tomorrow.
pickHave you ever asked yourself the question: “What if a UHaul Lesbian was also a Shape-Shifting, Man-Eating Monster?”
I loved the light-hearted style of the writing for some really gore-heavy scenes. Honestly, the whole book was so fun until the last hour, where we sink into that Romance writing for the post-climax downhill coast to the end. It‘s fine! I just personally don‘t like them.

pick4 ⭐ This book by an Illinois author is about a monster who seeks to find the help his town needs. They need help getting rid of the monster. He asks the witches, ogres, and unicorns for help. But they all want something from the monster that the monster can‘t do. So Monster goes home feeling they failed. But it turns out they did the exact right thing. The words and the messages are fun, but what really sets this book apart are the illustrations.
A BIG smile for a BIG book. Taken just after getting home from the book store 🤓💕

There's an ice storm heading our way, so we took our son shopping and got him his first book haul (first time he's been active in picking his own books). Bring on the storm 🌨
pickAnybody else read children‘s books when needing a pallet cleanser. I picked up a couple children‘s books last year as a way to catch up on my reading goal, but I realize that it help with my reading slumps as well. It‘s also been a challenge as I look specifically for books with a Gothic theme and some of the ones I found have been so fun. Boris and Bella was definitely my favorite out of the three, but they were all good.
Not an easy choice because both books are unique in their own ways, but this one stands out.
On Wednesdays I take my littlest to the library whilst his big brother is at story writing club. They always have a communal puzzle anyone can help with, and today Fox decided he could help. I always feel so lucky when I‘m in a library. We also read the tagged book which was a lot of fun 😊
pick4 ⭐Jane Yolen is a master storyteller. Along with the illustrator in less than 20 words, they can have a book from beginning to end. It‘s a perfect book for bedtime for that last push right before sleep.
