This is one I will think about for a long time. A suicidal young woman experiences the multiverse in a reflective novel. She‘s given more opportunities at life, but will she truly live? 5/5 and one of the best I read this year!

I‘ve been trying to reread some YA for my middle school students. Starting out strong with the Lightning Thief! I‘m surprised at how well it held up after so many years. #YA #middleschool
My girl Katee Robert has done it again! In this spicy sequel, we get another taste into Olympus‘ messy politics and sordid love affairs. While not as kinky as the predecessor, Electric Idol had me calling for my fiancé to get his ass in our room. #spicy
CALLING ALL YA NOVEL FANS: I‘m now teaching middle school English and need to decolonize my library. Please comment your favorite books with diverse characters, stories, settings, etc! #YA #youngadult #middleschoolreads

Clearly writing it didn‘t work out long and I stared at the last ones for eons.
Category game! 400 extra points for the total! It keeps cropping all my words though. :/ #teammonstermash #scarathon #scarathon2022
8,642 points for #Teammonstermash this week! Reading on audible and actually tracking word search words helped a lot. 🫡 #scarathon #scarathon2022 #momstermash #twilightyouretrashbutiloveyou
I listened to this on Audible. The narrator was FANTASTIC- one of the best I‘ve heard. The book, however, is a different story. The 1st part was great- the plot & characters kept me going. Super heavy on Catholicism, but had an amazing Rabbi character. The second half felt like it was an excuse to be misogynistic, homophobic, xenophobic, and when they got to NYC SUPER islamophobic. There‘s also a graphic gangr*pe not imperative to the plot. 2.25/5
Read a comfort book that I‘ve loved since middle school. I mean it‘s trashy, not fantastic, but I will read it every.single.time. As you can see, the book is well loved. #teammonstermash #scarathon #scarathon2022
1,197 points for #teammomstermash ! I did a lot of short stories this week. I was also obsessed with What We Do In The Shadows because my bf and I are dressing as Nadja and Lazlo for Halloween! #scarathon #scarhon2022
Short ghost story where a banker is summoned to a murder trial and sees ghosts. Fun take because I always forget Dickens wrote ghost stories. #teammonstermash #scarathon #scarathon2022
I tend to hate reading series but this one always seems to drag me back. I loved listening to all of it on audible with John Pirhalla narrating. This book seems to be setting up the 5th so I will forgive that the threads haven‘t been tied up completely yet. I look forward to reading the next two! #teammonstermash #scareathon #scarathon2022
Words using the letters in “Interview With The Vampire”. Wanted to do it in the 10 minutes before work ended. #teammonstermash #scareathon #scareathon2022
1,365 points for #TeamMonsterMash! I‘m having so much fun doing the #scareathon I got to watch 3 movies, 4 episodes of a horror show, finished 3 books, and have been listening to another book on audible!
Just watched this cool horror movie, Last Night in Soho, while in a hotel room that lost power so I‘m p spooked. #scarathlon #teammonstermash #scarathlon2022
I wanted to like this book so badly. The characters were so annoying I was hoping they‘d all die. There‘s 4th wall breaks that were supposed to be funny or quirky but they were just awkward and weird. Wouldn‘t recommend at all. #TeamMonsterMash #Scarathlon
I couldn‘t put it down, but the ending left me completely unsatisfied. Mental illness, ghosts, or a traumatic past coming back to haunt the entire town? It was delightfully creepy throughout. Pretty predictable plot. I‘d recommend it if you‘re looking for something fun and don‘t want to think much. #TeamMonsterMash #Scarathlon #Scarathlon2022
Ghost eaters is a book I won‘t soon forget. This book delves into the cycle of addiction, and the grief and trauma that brings you there. This unreliable narrator portrays the addiction of both love, abuse, and drugs that make you “see ghosts”. This drug‘s prominence and the narrator‘s fall from a life just beginning begs to question whether it‘s hallucinations, traumatic past, or true ghosts that haunt us all.
