panI made the mistake thinking this was a horror book. (it‘s classified as one) This book is just not the book for me, the writing was cringy and eye roll worthy. The ending was even worse. Just no accountability for serious actions to a serious lack of control in a hostile situation. Only likable character was the little brother. Over all. No.
Was hoping I might be able to use this for some of the teens I work with but it‘s too “much” for adolescent community mental health. Kate Bornstein is straight up truth.
It's cool that this has a Jewish superhero, apparently a first for DC, but the story was just a big mess. 😞

pickReading this was hard since I just recently lost my dad.. BUT it drew me in right from the get go and I think that loosing my dad was part of the reason why. I felt the grief and anger Sidney felt-although for different reasons. When it got to the secrets of June, it hit home as well because I‘ve been there and so many loved ones have been as well. #abuse #death #manipulation #gaslight #LGBTQ+ #teens #love #loss #friends #family
Taking some liberties with the syllable pattern today.
Today's compliment:
"I'm not embarrassed by
anything you wear, Mom."
High praise from my almost-16-year-old.

pickWith the latest in scientific research, Dan Siegel illustrates how we can best connect and nurture our relationship with our teens by understanding It‘s not “raging hormones” so much as it is the profound changes that take place in the brain during this period in their lives.

Listening to Go Ask Alice while I work on this artsy puzzle. I found a woman reading this book on YouTube. I was a little worried at first since the narrator seemed to be untrained, which is totally fine, but it held my attention the whole way through. While her tone was a little monotone, she was consistent and read solidly throughout the novel. This book is wild, and there is so much controversy behind it!
