Shadows of Sherwood | Kekla Magoon

“Sirens wailed through the streets of Sherwood, no doubt looking for them“

Shadows of Sherwood | Kekla Magoon

This book is a good representation of a female main character. The book shares similarities to Robin Hood. Students could read this book and try to make connections between the Shadows of Sherwood and Robin Hood. This book would be good for grades 4-6.

Shadows of Sherwood follows a girl named Robyn. Robyn recently had to flee her home after her parents disappeared. She connected with a group of strangers who each had special skills for surviving city life. The group tries to find clues to solve the government's wrong-doings, while Robyn tries to figure out what happened to her parents. This is an adventure fiction book, with a dystopian setting for the series. It shares similarities to Robin.

What Jonah Knew: A Novel | Barbara Graham

I liked all of the symbolism that is present, as well as the growth within many of the characters. It is categorized as a psychological thriller, and while I don‘t necessarily agree with this label, it does have some intense and thrilling moments towards the end. There are multiple narrators, which I enjoyed as it allowed for multiple perspectives. I just wish that the climax was stretched a little to create a more on-the-edge-of-my-seat ending.⁣

Paranormal at its best. Jonah knows things about Henry but the problem is that Henry is dead. Lucie can‘t understand why her son has night tremors and says that he has another mother. 😳. This is a great story…I believe!

Kid Owner | Tim Green

The name of my book is called “Kid Owner” and kid owner means a kid that owns something (connotation) and it doesn‘t have a denotative meaning

TheMrsShaw Next time pick a word that has both connotation and de notation. 3y

The first of what I assume will be many to-reads from abookowlscorner.com book blog. I‘m freaking out that she actually wrote me back to say she‘ll review Shadow Status! Meanwhile, I can‘t wait to dig into one of Naemi‘s elementary school favorites from 2014 Crossing Jordan. #chapterbooks #childrensbooks #middlegrade #kidlit

Going with a light, easy read this morning. My head has been all over the place. I received some very devastating news yesterday, my cousin was MURDERED! You know, you read about it, you watch shows, and hear stories, but you never think it's going to happen to someone you love. The saddest part is he has an infant daughter. 😭

I really loved this book. Jyn Erso is already one of my favorite characters and learning about the events that Rogue One left out were both heartbreaking and fantastic 🧡

KathyWheeler I might check this out; Rogue One is my favorite Star Wars movie. 3y
wisherwishinguponastar Such a great book! The teen/ya books in the new canon are so solid. They do a great job of fleshing out the backstory of some of the characters. 3y

It was great to read a book about true friendship between young boys. I do wish there was a more positive resolution for the bullies. Many serious topics were brought up but then never fully resolved.
