pickI was reminded of this book when reading The Museum of Words . I didn‘t know we had a copy. I mentioned it and it appeared from the depths of my partners study. The joy of this book for me are the illustrations. A story in themselves without the words. Not a childhood memory for me but I think it might be for lots of people as it was for Georgia Blain.
pickAuthor Ogle always knew he‘d be a writer, but it was a rocky road along the way with violent irrational parents, and bullying by his peers. But one person, his dear abuela, loved him unconditionally and opened her heart and home and helped him stay sane…

so-soLoved Rex Ogle‘s first novel Free Lunch, but this one fell really short for me. I enjoy the relationship he has shared with his grandmother, but ultimately I wasn‘t enveloped in this specific book which read more like narrative poetry.
pickThis was so much fun! I loved the melding of fantasy and mystery - I loved the themes of redemption and characters that put in the work to achieve goals they didn‘t completely believe were possible (and weren‘t alone but with the help of friend!!!)
This was a completely random, I don‘t know what i‘m in the mood for, downloaded at random Libby pick and I was enjoying it so much that I did some overtime, just so I could finish.
Boy who was top of his class gets expelled from magic school because he doesn‘t actually have any magical ability and was just faking it IS SUCH AN INTRIGUING hook - plus it‘s a locked room murder mystery?
(My current read on my favourite library app : Libby)
Posting because this green wolf is serving the side eye. This book is about the futility of eating children as a method for curbing potty mouth.
My last push on "The Mirror of My Heart" (which makes it sound like a chore, which it isn't) fueled by ends of stinky cheese I need to eat before they develop a hive mind! ???
About to open my #jolabokaflodswap book from @erinreads ❤️ love this paper @MaleficentBookDragon
pickCatching up on a few reviews: This one was good. I needed a break but will probably read more in this #series. It was a little weird but not so weird that I didn‘t want to know what happened. #audiobook #audio
Did a little #audiocooking today while my hubby got a much needed nap. I‘m really enjoying having an #audiobook to listen to. This one is pretty good so far.
