This year I am striving to post more consistently here and to actually participate in #bookspin #doublespin
I have chosen to make my list a list of prompts so as to not be forced to read something I don‘t want to or loose interest in a book because it becomes required reading.
January‘s prompts were Fiancé Pick and Poll Pick.
#bookspin #doublespin is hosted by @TheAromaofBooks

pickGood middle grade read. Fun for lovers of musical theater about a young girl, who uses a wheelchair, and her pursuit of a life on stage.
pickThe danger is palpable in this middle grade adventure about a pair of friends who are racing against an evil organization to uncover the last library—and untold riches—on Earth. This is a fun adventure with just enough edge to it to keep young readers engaged—there are some cool menacing mechanical dogs—but it also has a a subtly delivered message about the importance of books, how information equals power, & fighting for what is right.
Middle grade adventure today… a hunt for the last library on Earth? Sounds fun to me!
pickMiddle school scary. Just a monster-hunting ‘cemetery boy‘ that overseas his graveyard with his clandestine bestie flesh-eating mermaid friend.
Goal one: Collect the credits he receives by cashing in on the captured monsters in hopes of resurrecting his long dead mother.
I loved it! Great read to dull Election Day catastrophe blues. 😨
pick3 ⭐This is a sequel to a book I loved. Nell Gumbling is about the small town of Gumbling and the inhabitants within. In the first book Nell and her friends were trying to save their town. In the second book they‘re going away for a weeklong summer camping camp. The winners get these amazing jackets. But first Nell and her friends are going to have to handle changes in their friendship and how people can change as they grow up.
