A fun set of characters set during WW2, this cozy mystery is a fun read. However, while I didn‘t guess all the details of the twists, I did guess most of the twists and was two steps ahead of Irene the whole way. The ending left a few things hanging and seemed a bit rushed, but overall it was a fun story and I liked the characters. #dreamscapemedia #alc #librofm
Ruta Sepetys has become one of my favorite current authors of #YA #HistoricalFiction for the way she writes realistic characters in moments of history that aren‘t already well represented in fiction. This is a story of life in communist Romania and the revolution of 1989 from the perspective of 17 year old Cristian.

Starting my #pop22 #SocialHorror book. It sounds interesting. 👍🏻 it was helpful that the blurb outright said social horror! 😂
I have three reviews to write. Hopefully they‘ll come later today. I‘m going through one of those times where life just catches up with you. 🤷🏻♀️ hopefully things will improve soon! 😁

Great road trip listen! I‘ve always liked Colin Jost on SNL — even when most people panned him. I loved getting a glimpse into what led him to where he is today as well as some interesting SNL BTS tidbits. I laughed out loud a lot, but the chapter about his mom made me cry. Can‘t wait to see the pictures in the physical book when I get home.

This is packed full of information and includes numerous short personal anecdotes. It also includes a balance of details from different perspectives including students, family, and staff. However, it is written in a very straightforward report style and does not elaborate on any of the personal stories.

If you‘re looking for dirty laundry, lies, and little secrets, find another book to read. If you could use a well-told story of a loving family, hard work and perseverance, and a genuine appreciation for all that has been given and earned, look no further. To me, it is refreshing to have tales of healthy professional and personal relationships! I‘m so glad that I chose it as my new release from Libro.fm. I loved it from beginning to end! #librofm
This is another Educator #ALC choice from Libro.fm that I think might be better in print because of the illustrations. However, even without those, it is a wonderful collection of short biographies of influential and interesting Africans. I recognized some of the names but learned something new about all of the people described.

Although as an adult, a few minor details didn‘t quite work for me, this is a great #MiddleGrade story that addresses the Holocaust, the KKK, family history, social media influences, middle school choices, and second chances. Gordon Korman makes all of it work in an interesting and mostly realistic way.
