Thanks @thearomaofbooks and best wishes for your moving weekend!
Especially excited for #bookedintime and #middlegrademarch this month!
#bookspin
@thearomaofbooks
My #Bookspin is a new release historical fiction I'm excited to read! My #Doublespin is a middle grade historical fiction told in verse; it also just received a Newbery Honor award and fits perfectly with Black History Month. Both historical, but very different settings!!

pickThis was an emotional read for me! I was in 4th grade in Florida when it happened. My class stepped outside to watch so I saw the explosion live in the sky. And in hindsight there were so many reasons to not launch that day 😔 The story was well told by the author.
pickThis is a self-published middle grade book my friend wrote for his sons- I wasn‘t sure what to expect but turns out I was very impressed! Recommend for fans of The False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen.

pickThis graphic novel lives up to the fantastic premise- characters escaping from their books at the NYC public library! An adventurous ode to books and readers!
These #ShardlakeBR books keep coming up on my #bookspin list! I failed to start it last month, but I'll be sure to get it in now! My #doublespin is a middle grade book I'm looking forward to reading!
@TheAromaofBooks you're so right, now my year can truly begin! 😉
A few less books, but more pages than last year! 🎉
My Middle Grade #bookbracket!
It was so hard to choose between my top 3: First State of Being, Big Tree and Westfallen! It should really be a three way tie!
I read a lot of mediocre middle grade this year (for an award committee), but there were some great ones too!
I don't feel as strongly about this winner as I did last year about The Covenant of Water, but here it my 2024 #bookbracket!
Thanks for the bracket design @catsandbooks

One more #jolabokaflodswap2024 post with my gifts (plural!!!) from @Julsmarshall who was so sweet to send extra goodies my way! I love it all- books, chocolate, and earrings! Thank you so much! And thanks to @MaleficentBookDragon for organizing!
My #jolabokaflodswap2024 gifts! Extra special thanks to @Julsmarshall for spoiling me with a birthday gift too!!! And Texas chocolates- how fun!!! Thanks to @MaleficentBookDragon too!
Today‘s #middlegrademonday theme might seem odd timing, but this is for all the December birthdays that tend to get overlooked (mine is tomorrow)! All are invited to play! Can‘t wait to see your posts!
pickRead this for #bookedintime @Cuilin I skipped over this one when it came out, but I‘m so glad this challenge brought it back to my attention! The humorous tone reminded me very much of Doomsday Book by Connie Willis which I loved!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickRead this for #litsyscifibookclub I enjoyed the mix of characters. The plot was fast-paced and included a some mystery and a fun twist! The world of body modification was well-developed. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Going out today! #jolabokaflodswap24

It's that time of year! The tagged book is a fun Parent Trap story of twins separated and adopted at birth who discover each other at their grandparents' retirement home. One has been raised Jewish, the other secular, so swapping at the holidays has some big implications! But it's mostly sweet fun! I'd love to hear your holiday recommendations on this #middlegrademonday !

A Christmas book for my #Bookspin and a newish release that I already have checked out in Libby for #Doublespin!
Thanks @TheAromaofBooks !
Out of the blue had one of my best reading months ever! I caught up on several middle grade historical fiction which I love. I started Prophet Song, but not sure I'm going to finish, struggling with the style- I would love for someone to give me a reason keep going! @thearomaofbooks #bookspinbingo

Happy Thanksgiving week to everyone in the US! I love the use of a grandparent/grandchild relationship to frame a historical fiction story. The tagged book does that along with a crazy adventure! Another good one is The Lost Year by Katherine Marsh. I can't wait to see your selections for this #middlegrademonday

My usual trio: an audiobook, a middle grade book and a bedtime book (which happens to be my #doublespin and #authoramonth book!)

To start off nonfiction November, let's share memoirs for #middlegrademonday !
The tagged is about the author's trip to Europe in his middle school years and captures all the insecurities of that age so well. Graphic memoirs like this one are becoming quite the trend!
