Happy belated bookish Valentine's Day everyone!
Just had to share my Valentine's book haul from my sweetie!
And how was I able to have the shelf space available in the photo? Part of my gift was also a new bookshelf!
I may be just a teeny tiny bit spoiled. 😳😆
pickInteresting, but not entirely substantiated scholarship— still, definitely worth the read and fascinating 🧚🍁💀not for the weak-stomached scholar, that‘s for sure
so-soFinished this one today. It was ok and I didn‘t DNF. But, yeah.

I loved the Fancy Nancy books growing up and when reading this, I was reminded a lot of them. The way the book is written as well as the illustrations. I would love to read this in an elementary class.
