3.5/5 ⭐️ This adventure traveled over land and sea and I enjoyed it all. I even shed some tears here and there.

This was an absolute delight of a book with unbridled feral energy. My new comfort read.

I cannot recommend the audiobook enough. The voices are amazing and the narrator gives Avra the right amount of manic, racoon energy that brings him to life.

lil1inblue You had me at “unbridled feral energy.“ 😍 Stacked. 3d

PuddleJumper @lil1inblue 🤣🤣 I giggled out loud several times 3d

I got to hang out with my teen and my spouse for an outdoor, in-concert-with-the-symphony showing of this classic movie about a grandpa who reads a book aloud to his jaded grandson. There's also kissing and pirates.

Ruthiella How fun! 5d

ravenlee Is this a kissing book? 5d

Butterfinger Inconceivable!!!!! I want to experience this. 5d

Clare-Dragonfly Kidnapped by pirates is good… 4d

ImperfectCJ @Ruthiella @ravenlee @Butterfinger @Clare-Dragonfly It was such a fun time! The music was fantastic, and the audience participation (from yelling out lines with the movie to dressing up as Buttercup, Westley, or ROUSes) was a hoot. Such an awesome movie! (I just wish there were more women in it and that they hadn't made Buttercup so clueless.) 4d

MemoirsForMe How cool! Was it the San Diego Symphony? 4d

ImperfectCJ @MemoirsForMe Yes! They were fabulous! We saw them again tonight for Tchaikovsky's 4th Symphony (and Beethoven's Piano Concerto 3, which isn't my favorite), and it was just what I needed after feeling anxious much of the day. They're playing with Beck in July, and I'm trying to decide if that will be awesome or lame. 4d

MemoirsForMe Oh what fun! I used to go to the Pops, but it‘s been ages. Looks like they have a whole new amphitheater too. Glad you‘re treating yourself! Hmm..Beck could be pretty wild. 2d

Small Saul | Ashley Spires

so-so

2 ⭐This book was adorable. Small Saul wants nothing more than to be a pirate. But even after finishing pirate school, he doesn‘t have an easy life at sea. He‘s eventually kicked off his boat when the rest of the pirates realized how good they had it they go back and rescue Saul. While I like this book, I also do not like this book. I love that Saul chases his dream and makes the way he does things work into getting his dream.

LibrarianRyan However, this book shows Saul being constantly bullied by others for being different. And he takes it. He never stands up for himself. So, he is kicked off the boat and when the bullies come back going, oh, we shouldn‘t have done that he goes right back to being their best friends. I think the message in this book does not come out the way the author intended. I think there are two dueling messages one that was meant one that wasn‘t. And while I 6d

LibrarianRyan normally absolutely love this author‘s books, I think this one‘s a mess. This sounds more like a bully story where the bullies win then a story about being yourself. 6d

Stuffed full of cold and unable to breath so decided to try an audiobook. I'm hoping the unbridled feral goblin energy this book is giving isn't my fever because it's delightful

AnnCrystal 🙏🏼💝. 5d

peanutnine This book has the BEST chaotic energy! Avra's shenanigans are a fun mood booster, hope you feel better soon 5d

PuddleJumper @peanutnine I'm really enjoying the audiobook. The narrator has this manic energy for Avra which is very fitting 5d
