A book and a beer. Trying to distract myself from beginning the 2022/23 school year tomorrow.

kspenmoll So soon? Hopefully you get out earlier than we do in CT. 2y
Erica5 @kspenmoll our students start the 22nd, but I go back for classroom set up and school year prep. Setting my alarm is brutal 😭😂 2y
HellyStiletto See you in a little while! 😭 2y

O'Malley helped me finish this book...finally! It was decent, I enjoyed rereading twilight from Edward's perspective, but it OH SO LONG! #catsoflitsy

Surprisingly good so far 🙂

violabrain I really enjoyed this book! Definitely outside what I typically like, but it was a great read! 4y
TheBookHippie I agree. It‘s been a long time but that‘s how I would describe it as well. It‘s a great read. 4y

I mean, I finished it. Not my typical genre to begin with, but after reading and LOVING The Nightingale I thought I would give this a go. There is no comparison besides the fact that it is a story about survival during WWII. I don't recommend.

I have enjoyed all of Gillian's other books so far, but couldn't seem to get into this one. I picked it up on several occasions but 👎

Just started this tonight. What a slow start. Maybe because I'm tired? I think I'll try again tomorrow.

Woke up to find my almost 6 year old reading on his own in his book corner. Also, it happened to be one of his German books - Die Kleine Biene (The Little Bee) so this made me very happy! #kidsoflitsy #duallanguagelearners

A quick read over winter break. Did not disappoint. Flynn isn't afraid of digging into dark topics and running with it. O'Malley agrees! #catsoflitsy

This book left me with a lot of questions. I liked the way it started, did not like how it ended.

A slow story up until the middle. I thought about bailing, but I guess I'm glad I stuck it out. The ending was intense.

A great read for anyone that has children about to start school. With all the mom cliques and little scandals. A funny murder mystery.

I was on the edge of my seat the entire time with this one. Wondering how, when, if she would ever break free and save her sister. The end was a bit predictable, but I still enjoyed it.

Secret Pizza Party | Adam Rubin

Started reading this story to my pre k class today and stopped after about 4 pages. The book glorifies secrets, and that's not okay with me. I ended up using the book as a teachable moment and discussing why it's important to never keep secrets before moving on to art. No thank you!

Loved the book! I'm such a crybaby. I cried when Evelyn lost Harry and again when she lost Celia. Also, did not see the end coming! I knew Evelyn and Monique had to be tied together through Monique's father somehow, but I never guessed it was because he was someone's lover!
