Gracies a typical girl in an atypical world: one where sasquatches helped to win the Civil War, where dragons glide over Route 1 on their way south for the winter (sometimes burning down an Applebee‘s along the way), and where Dark Clouds come for people when they die.
One day, a cloud comes looking for her little brother. Determined to protect Sam, theyll have to learn to believe—and trust the world holds more possibilities than ever imagined.
pickMy goal this weekend was to finish my #lmpbc book, and I managed it! Overall, it was a fun read and I really liked the main character. Good choice! @merelybookish @IndoorDame @LibrarianRyan
pickA pick, barely. I found the story of family interpersonal dynamics and survival very compelling, like a #middlegrade version of “Life As We Knew It” or “How I Live Now.” I found the fantasy world building wholly unconvincing and overexplained, although I think few kids would be bothered by that. The diary format felt a bit forced too. Still, I read this in 1 day over a couple sittings in a week I‘m barely able to focus, and I can‘t discount that.
I‘m not sure why I brought such an ambitious stack of books home this weekend, considering today‘s (hopefully) 2 hour nap time is literally the only reading time I‘ll get... But it‘s a beautiful afternoon on the porch and I‘m making the most of it! #momlife #letmeread
About to spend my prep period not getting ready for my upcoming classes, but diving into this middle grade novel. #lmpbc #groupm @merelybookish @IndoorDame @LibrarianRyan
Also, Ryan I forgot to post but your book is on its way to you.
Hi guys, heading to the post office (late because of Labor Day + 😷) with this as yet unaddressed package which I‘m 99% sure is going to @Johanna414 but when I looked to make sure I got super confused about our mailing order because it looked to me like this package would have come to me from @LibrarianRyan but I thought I remembered it coming from @merelybookish ? Sorry to ask, but would one please of you just reminded me of our mailing order?
pickGot to finish our #lmpbc book for this month today- round 6 group M. I really liked this one. I thought it had all the classic elements of magic and adventure but was also surprising and substantive. I‘ll get it in the mail soon!
On its way! @IndoorDame. Sorry for the lag. #lmpbc
And there's some long overdue mail coming to you too @RebelReader 😳
Picked up my #lmpbc book from the Tattered Cover yesterday.
I plan to read and send it off soon, as I'm leaving town in early July and won't be back till August. Sooo....for mailing, who sends to who? Shall we follow the order in @suvata's email or switch it up to go due west/ east?
@LibrarianRyan @Johanna414 @IndoorDame
So I may went have a smidge overboard at the school book fair today.... 😊
pickStarts off goofy & quickly becomes littered with "ow" moments that sneak up on you. It's like magical realism got mixed up with Night Vale & the result is stellar. Whatever you think the resolution of this book is going to be, you're probably wrong.
