The Alien | K. A. Applegate
post image
Pickpick

The humour in this one stems mostly from Ax‘s curious tastebuds and a fairly disastrous trip to the movies (in which Ax eats popcorn, the box it came in and other people‘s chocolates) but the serious notes deal with the weight of responsibility that Ax feels to Andalite law and customs and his new human friends. Will they hate him if they know the truth about Andalites and Yeerks? Or will withholding knowledge drive a wedge between them?

Rise of the World Eater | Jamie Littler

Look who finished a book

I‘ve been sick and obsessing about Disney Dreamlight Valley so this has been a long time coming.

Rise of the World Eater is the 3rd and final installment of the Frostheart series and I thought it was a good end to the series.

This was one of January‘s #bookspin #doublespin pick but I can‘t remember which.

Araf lives in Oman with his mother and father. His best friend is his grandfather whom he has great adventures. Araf life is about to change as his parents have decided to get doctoral degrees at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor Michigan. He must leave his cat, his school, his friends, and his beloved grandfather.
Well written. Good characters. Good story.
Worth the time.

An entertaining and easy read featuring the challenges of sharing space with others. Jon Klassen‘s illustrations are spot on as always. I enjoyed this cute story, especially Rocket Potato. Favorite line, “You sound like a polka when you eat cereal.” 😂 I will be reading the sequel.

Picking this book for the #readingbracket2025 was not a hard decision. It was a wonderful book and by far my favorite this month! Now, the hard part is going to be which book wins the bracket. Probably The House of Hades, but I‘m posting this at 1:30am and don‘t want to choose right now.

My #Bookspin and #Doublespin for March. Both have been on my shelf for a while now. I loved Jamieson‘s Roller Girl and Infidel is the second book in a trilogy.
