pickA short, effective story of vulnerable children in s war zone. The child characters are well drawn. The “evil” adult characters were one note. There were many coincidences to move the story forward.

One from my TBR. My brother took this picture of the eclipse from his house in South Carolina.
pickDomestic violence, depression, assault. This novel of varying formats expresses the trauma and hurt felt by two beothers as they try to survive their senior year. Thoughtful and heartwarming.
pickUnbearably tense story about two brothers, Jonah, 16, and Simon, 14, who have left home for Arizona where they hope they will be reunited with their older brother, Matt, who has been fighting in the Vietnam War. Unfortunately, they get picked up by Mitch and Lilly and things start to go horribly wrong. I really liked the main characters and their predicament was nail biting.
This bookstore crawl was such an incredible event for Indianapolis! In four days I visited 19 of the participating 23 independent stores. It was an absolute delight! I met up with friends and took my kids to some throughout the crawl. We talked with other participants and owners of the stores, and everyone was blown away by the response from the community. Such an incredible weekend! It filled my heart to see how our city supported this event!

I just need to pick up this months Nancy Drew read from the library and my #MiddleGradeMarch stack is good to go. My current favorite mg author is Jason Reynolds and I‘ve read nearly all of his mg titles except the tagged title.
