A new detective agency, a treasure hunt, and a few felonies later….This was great fun. There was adventure galore, humor, personal growth, and the mention of lots of yummy food.

My library system is hitting it out of the park with this year‘s Community Read selections. Art Club is the MG pick and it is delightful! The artwork is colorful and fun. I love the story of kids forming an art club, exploring different styles of art, and proving to school administration and the community how art is important, too.

My #Bookspin and #Doublespin for March. Both have been on my shelf for a while now. I loved Jamieson‘s Roller Girl and Infidel is the second book in a trilogy.

A fun inspirational feel good middle grade read. I loved the multiple perspectives, the themes of kindness, and its realistic feel. What wasn't realistic was how focused the kids were on dating and the occasional cringy dialogue (“flat“ being one cringy word I didn't like). I'm also mad Jack didn't get an award at the end. But otherwise a good read.

Books are mirrors that teach us more about ourselves. Here are some of my favorites.

BengalsFan I've read Ghost. It's a good book. 3mo
Skibidi Nate what is The 5th wave about? the cover looks interesting. 3mo
acid my name is Bob

mrferro88 @Ben H It's a dystopian novel about totalitarian government control and the frightening elimination of our freedoms, including freedom of thought, as well as the manipulation of truth. I'd give it a try for sure! 3mo
mrferro88 @BengalsFan Ghost is SO good! 3mo
mrferro88 @Skibidi Nate It's an alien invasion book, but the kicker... you can't tell the difference between humans and aliens. It kept me reading for sure! 3mo
D3lilah:) I've never read Ghost before,I just might have to try it! 3mo

Some of my 6th graders have been pestering me to read this book. It was fine lol. The story was a bit predictable, the characters somewhat two-dimensional imo, but hey— it‘s a book written for kids, so lemme not be too harsh. Ultimately I think it‘s a net positive ofc that my students have access to culturally relevant YA lit, & I am ecstatic they love reading so much that they want to talk about & share their fav books with their teachers :)

I‘ve read 28/100 including all of the Grimm fairy tales, that were in a fat book that I devoured as a child. In some cases that may have been ill advised! (I‘m looking at you, Red Shoes!) But I digress. Here are some of my favorites.
1. Watership Down
2. The Secret Garden
3. Brown Girl Dreaming
