The nostalgia! My mom came across my collection of SVH and sent them home with me. I intend to donate them to my kiddos classroom library, but I am going to enjoy them for a few days first.

This was a YA recommendation from a friend. It‘s short but packs a lot of punch. It‘s the story of 15 yo Hoodie whose Orthodox Jewish community moves to a new area. It‘s about prejudices towards those unfamiliar to you. It‘s about being different and fitting in, and it‘s about questioning your beliefs and teachings. It‘s a timely, solid read, especially for high schoolers.
It's interesting that the Melanie Rehak book (which is great!) has almost the same title and is the same color as the original, 1975 edition of this Bobbie Ann Mason book. Mason's book covers lots of sleuths, not just Nancy, and has Mason's personal commentary.

This is a fun SVH Christmas book. Todd is still in Vermont & is coming to see Liz over the break. But she‘s not sure if they still have that spark anymore. Meanwhile, Suzanne Devlin, who terrorized Liz & her friends the last time she visited, is coming for Christmas.

Most of Duncan's books fit this category, and I still find her relevant today. Anyone remember I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER? This one is a fave of mine.
It‘s time for the alternate cover of the day! 😆
In all seriousness, please send prayers and/or good vibes this way. I live in central Florida and am freaking out about this monster hurricane headed this way. We‘re hunkering down at home and I‘ve got 3 kindles filled with books to keep me distracted. Any of my Litsy friends who are in the line of this storm, I‘m thinking of you and praying.
Happy reading!

I am only able to listen to history audiobooks while at work.… but the books I choose are about the powerful and scary women in history. I‘d consider that a win.
