#ReadingDecathlon

An excellent collection of short stories, with characters that feel very realistic. Prakash tackles poverty and corruption with a parody, brings Delhi to life, and a story of escape and hope. Very R.K. Narayan-esque. A great pick to round off my #readingdecathlon.

I love cranky characters, and Backman writes some particularly grouchy ones that I love. #biblioweekend #tbysreadahon #readingforgold #readingdecathlon.

This is probably the saddest part so far in the book series-which is quite different from the movies and tv series.
And it's even sadder *because* Toothless isn't a Night Fury in the books. I'm not even sure they exist in the book world. He's really small, and so he can't defend himself very well. 🙁

Day 7 of the #BUChallenge: Underrated. Lily and her toy squirrel are helping me read Squirrel, You Really Got Me Now. I'm not sure if this series is really underrated, but I feel like not enough people have experienced its awesomeness.

I'm #currentlyreading this for the #readingdecathlon. My 10 days is up at the end of Wednesday, so I'm switching gears and trying for silver. That's 5 novels & 5 graphic novels.

Without Annette | Jane B. Mason
post image
Pickpick

Without Annette is about Josie and Annette, who have been best friends for years and girlfriends for a few. Their relationship seems great but Annette's mother, Shannon, is a huge barrier. This book is a great coming-of-age story with a lot of growth and maturity coming from Josie as she learns that some problems just don't go away and new ones arise.
