pickWhat a page turner! I was hooked right from the start. You think you know what‘s going on, then it gets turned on you as you hear a different version of something. Really well done. I wish it ended just slightly differently, it was a bit too abrupt at the end. But otherwise great.
bailedI don't watch or listen to dramatized real crime shows. This book is about a real crime show, with entire chapters describing the setup and film directions of the show. I find it boring. Just not my thing.
My January (tracked) reading. I'm chipping away at my backlog of modern children's books (I try to know what's out there to gift to friends' kids and also for fast URC solutions haha). The only book here I DO NOT recommend is “A River's Gifts“. It plays fast and loose with facts and assumes children are too stupid for nuance. It's also not written by Klallam people and it shows. The two queer romances are both @willaful's fault, thank you. ❤
pickThis is a charming book about a boy visiting his mum‘s mother country. Each day, like a real vacation, Charlie explores something new about #SaintLucia, such as its volcanic beginning to its food to family! I adored this book. #readingtheAmericas @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB
My next ebook for #readingtheAmericas for #SaintLucia @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB
This is a book that shows how important one‘s culture is and how everyone comes together to have fun. The author says, “I love the concept of play: everyone cheering together, forgetting about whatever challenges life can bring,” I think this is beautiful and really comes through in the illustrations.
