Afro-Latine joy shines in this gorgeous story of a father and daughter riding through the city at dawn. It‘s about bonding, heritage, and seeing yourself in a new light. Beautiful, vibrant illustrations and heartfelt storytelling make this an unforgettable picture book. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #PictureBook #Cultura

Kevin Wilson is hit-or-miss for me but this was a hit. I really liked the premise, found the characters to be quirky and loveable and just enjoyed the funny stuff that happened along the way.

I really enjoy Wilson‘s writing & was excited this was one of the options for the #BiteSizedBooks portion of the #GoodreadsChallenge! This quick family drama starts with Mad in TN, who is shocked to have a half-brother show up in a PT Cruiser—& news that their dad has more children & is in CA. A sibling road trip ensues with the climax proving that it‘s not so much the destination as the journey. Funny moments, big secrets & room to define family!

Bookwormjillk @ChaoticMissAdventures @ImperfectCJ I can't decide if I'm happy or sad I've heard of so many of them this year! 1mo
squirrelbrain I‘ve read 18, and own another 14. (Who said I have too many books?!) There‘s still a lot I haven‘t heard of though. I‘ve made a spreadsheet and I‘m figuring out where to get others from. 8 reserved at my local library so far…. 1mo
ChaoticMissAdventures @Bookwormjillk I know that feeling! I often feel overwhelmed and burn out so I think I like that I know of many of them. 1mo
Flaneurette This made my day! I've only read 7 but have a few on deck to read soon. My holds list is now full. Doing some research on the handful I hadn't heard of which is always fun.

Larkken Yesssss! 1mo
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I always like to see what makes the list. I've read exactly zero of them this year, but I've been reading a lot of older books this year. I have Sky Daddy & Wild Dark Shore on my shelves, so maybe I'll get to those and decide if I want to cheer for one of them to win. 1mo

Note to self: Do not pick up anymore of Percival Everett's back catalogue unless a trusted reviewer recommends. Do not be seduced by shiny reissue covers.

vivastory This is one from his back catalogue that I very much enjoyed: God's Country 2mo
charl08 @vivastory thanks 😊 2mo
vivastory @charl08 I've read a few Everett books and this features one of the most memorable scenes of all, hope it works for you 2mo
BarbaraBB Lol I know what you mean. I mostly wait for reviews too. Thanks for yours of this one! 2mo
charl08 @BarbaraBB I've loved a couple, others not so much. 2mo

"Don't pick up any wooden nickels."

Guessed what this meant, but had to look it up. Trying to think of a British equivalent.

I really have no idea what's going on.

One of those books that should come with a link to the study notes...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.25

Loved hearing Wilson speak, then meeting him afterward, recently in Nashville! He‘s so funny, quirky, and sweet. This was not my fave of his, but still enjoyable.
