The #MiddleGradeMonday prompt this week was to share books with a number in the title. I completely forgot to check my shelf then, but today I found these.

I tagged Fourmile as it and other books by Watt Key are often well liked by some of my more reluctant readers and also not as well known as I think they should be.

This is my first order since we‘ve moved! Oh how I‘ve missed cheap book orders from #betterworldbooks! Building #grammaslibrary one(?) book at a time!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow, I loved this. On the edge on my seat and finished it in two days.

It‘s about a newly graduated Black nurse in Alabama working at a family planning clinic in 1973, shortly after the uncovering of the Tuskegee syphilis experiments. She fiercely fights for her patients, including a pair of young girls, ages 11 and 13. This novel jumps through time between 1973 and 2016 where she reflects on their case.

Highly recommended.

Willow helping me read outside today.

A book with #GloryInTitle I read this one a few years ago. I enjoy this author‘s stories as well as her beautiful book covers. 💜🪻💜

Borrowed from a friend who‘s also a #botm BFF!

Have high expectations for this one!

Finally started this today… Takes place in my home state and my hometown is mentioned in the beginning. A win win!!!

I was so emotionally invested in this story. Although the characters are fictional, the government sponsored sterilization of poor, black, and sometimes mentally-challenged young girls is a disturbing piece of not-so-distant American history that should be documented and understood.
