The Silver Linings Playbook: A Novel | Matthew Quick

I read this when it first came out, but I haven't seen the movie. Is it any better than the book?

peanutnine @rubyslippersreads 😹 luckily the shelves are high enough that that would be difficult. She prefers guarding the stacks all around on the floor 6d

The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness | Jonathan Haidt

so-so

Meh. Not anything groundbreaking. Things we‘ve heard before, but I guess I believe the major problem starts at home. Parents not parenting anymore.

The Miscalculations of Lightning Girl | Stacy McAnulty

This year I switched from teaching JH English & Math to JH & HS math, but I‘ve kept my class library as most of the books are mine personally. So, I‘m trying something a little different to promote a few books each month on a particular topic. This was my August display as we started the new year.

Interesting Facts about Space | Emily Austin

pick

I noticed piles of differing opinions on this one and was curious what my thoughts would be. Turns out, I rather loved Enid and the world she was trying to navigate deliberately wearing the facade of a ‘normal‘ person while finding out at 26 she may be on the spectrum. I was pulled into her relationship with her mother - each doing their best to support each other while each moved through their own inner demons.

pick

This is a nice vacation read with a heartfelt and sensitive story. Meredith hasn't come out of her house for three years. A couple of good friends visit her regularly, while her relationship with her mother and sister looks to be strongly affected by some past incidents. The traumas behind her severe anxiety issues are slowly revealed. With the right amount of support, patience, perseverance and compassion, healing is possible.
