Not much though about them as they don‘t have much going on but they keep my attention in the moment and they don‘t take long to get through.

pickThe drama club puts on Splendor In The Grass; Jessica stars opposite Bill Chase, using his crush on her to get him to do her bidding. She notices DeeDee Gordon‘s crush on Bill & intervenes. Bill continues giving DeeDee surfing lessons. DeeDee‘s father, a Hollywood agent, watches a rehearsal & says that he spied screenworthy talent. Certain it‘s her, Jessica magnanimously steps aside for DeeDee & Bill— until the screentest turns out to be for Bill!
“It was a wild, windy, southwestern spring when the idea of killing Mr. Griffin occurred to them.”
The #WithTheBanned September read. #FirstLineFridays
Hey #WithTheBanned readers. Our back-to-school read is Lois Duncan‘s Killing Mr. Griffin. Discussion questions will be posted at the end of the month.
pickFirst, this is a YA story. Characters are 17-18. So naturally they will behave like how normal teenagers would. They are childish, selfish, cringy, annoying & irritating to adults. So if you get easily annoyed by teenagers or teen characters, don't read it. You'll find it boring and frustrating & I don't want these tags to be associated with this beautiful & bittersweet story.
pickThis book was so, so good. I was completely captivated. It‘s one of those books that makes your inner child sit up and say, “I knew I was right!” I‘m so bummed that the other two aren‘t on kindle or at my library.
pickI don't know how I first learned about this 1986 YA novel by NZ author Margaret Mahy but it's been on my Goodreads TBR since 2016.
And it's fantastic!
Middle daughter Harry (real name Ariadne) is a quiet bookish middle daughter in a bustling family. At their summer house for Xmas holidays, three young men crash the party. And it's unclear who or what they are. Did Harry conjure them through her writing?
The story is weird & complex 👇

Been a huge Sweet Valley fan since I was 9 years old. Still love reading them for nostalgia‘s sake. 🥰
