Persephone fails to see why this is a problem. 😹 She crawled onto the book after I picked up my phone to look up a poet the author mentioned. Silly cat. #CatsOfLitsy

This book is so good. All I want to do is sit and bed and read it. I‘m so tired. But…must…carry…on…

I will be buying the next used copy I find.

I'm really enjoying this series. Alex is likeable and his friends are as well, not to mention odd and intriguing. The incidents are imaginative and complex. This one in particular, really opens up wide new horizons. I'm eager to see where they lead.

Playground reading season has begun!

A boy takes his Bubbe Rosa around Brooklyn and Manhattan as they shop for ingredients for dinner. She struggles with seeing new things in the place of old and her memories flood their conversation. It‘s a short read about a Jewish woman in the city, and I love the glimpses of her when she is young and her interactions with an old baker she‘s known for years.

Really excited to be starting this book.
