4🌟 While this is technically not a middle grade, I would recommend it for that age group as well. It's a good introduction to the events of the day.

@Karisimo somehow I missed this yesterday. I had to choose one of my favorite children's classics.

The historical aspect of this book was super interesting. It was an emotional read. I was not thrilled with the ending, am I the only one?
#MiddleGradeMonday Share a middle grade read about boat or ocean life. @Karisimo
I read these two for booked in time, last year. One nonfiction and one fiction, about the sinking of the children's ship in World War II.
I watched season 1 of When Hope Calls about a year and a half ago. I'm glad I found this companion novel. The stories were not exactly the same but in a way that makes it more interesting.
I've always enjoyed Oke's novels, since the first time I read the Love Comes Softly series, many years ago.
pick3.5🌟 #seasonalcozies @julieclair August 2024
The title and the cover art made me think of back to school and all the books.
Great characters, but I was disappointed in the setting. I just didn't feel enough of the Scottish vibes.

@Chrissyreadit @DinoMom thanks for hosting.
@Avanders thank you so much for my trip to Germany! I love everything, especially the historical fiction novels! It feels like a #foodandlit theme! Even the candle is food themed. @Catsandbooks and @Texreader check it out.

#ChristmasinJuly
My favorite Christmas book this month. My theme of sad books continues... however this had a happy ending.
pick4🎄 #ChristmasinJuly
Why do I keep picking sad Christmas books this month? It's part of the Elm Creek quilt series. However, I had no trouble reading it as a standalone.
#MiddleGradeMonday Featuring a character with disability.
#disability @Karisimo
I highly recommend this one. It was a Schneider Family book award winner and the audiobook also won an award, as well.

#ChristmasinJuly I loved the friends to lover's trope. I wasn't expecting so many sad parts in this book. I guess, I shouldn't be surprised, it seems that animal stories always go this route. That's the main reason I knocked off a star.

#Seasonalcozies July 2024 @julieclair
This one is definitely set in the summer, I wasn't sure before I started reading it. It's the second book in the Lighthouse Library series. The author does a great job with the setting. I'm really enjoying this series.
#MiddleGradeMonday @Karisimo
This emotional novel was the first thing I thought of. Definitely one not to be missed. #roadtrip

A cute Christmas romance with a time loop element that I enjoyed. I also liked the side characters in this novel.

WWI France
Based on true events in the life of Julia Stimson. I enjoyed learning about this pioneering woman in the medical field. It was also interesting reading about the medical practices at the time.
#MiddleGradeMonday @Karisimo
I chose two. One I've read, and one on my TBR. I read The Bridge Home several years ago It's about four homeless kids trying to survive in India. I've wanted to read Nowhere Boy, ever since I read The Lost Year during Middle Grade March.
I forgot to take a photograph of the package. @Avanders be on the lookout, it's due to arrive Monday July 15th.

Middle grade book with an outdoor adventure.
This Trilogy is a great example of outdoor adventure, storm stories, and other hard-hitting topics.

1930s road trip with a couple of giraffes, a teenage boy (Woody) and a curmudgeon. (old man) I flew through this one.

In the fourth book in the Baxter children's series, the kids go to camp. I will be reading this by the end of the month.
#MiddleGradeMonday @Karisimo
I chose a World War II novel set in Pearl Harbor. My grandfather served in the United States Navy during World War II. He was stationed in Hawaii for part of that time.
I have not read this book yet, it was a cover buy. It sounded like an interesting story.

#CampLitsy24 July
My library hold came in, so I went ahead and listened to the July selection. This was really good. The last half of the book took a dark turn that I wasn't expecting. There's so much to discuss in this one. Looking forward to it.
Now I need to read Huck Finn again. It's been a while.

This is an anticipated read that has a time slip element. I can't wait to read it because I loved Aftermath, by the same author.

I enjoyed the author's take on the passage from the Bible about the woman with the issue of blood. (See above) It's a heart-wrenching story of faith and redemption. Characters and plot are well developed. I would definitely recommend it.
#weeklyforecast
I thought I would share a readathon I heard about on booktube. It looks like fun, and the bingo board is adorable. I'm currently reading the tagged book; it would work for several prompts.

It's extremely emotional, has a hot setting, could be considered multiple genres, and also has friendship and family.
#MiddleGradeMonday @Karisimo @Daisey
Gloria's family lose their Farm in Oklahoma, and have to move to California to survive. There are lots of tough topics in this one. Great for a book club!

I decided to read quite a few #YA this month. I'm happy with my selections, all of these were four and five stars.
I've seen this one all over booktube. Hopefully, I'll get to it soon. @Karisimo #middlegradeMonday

One from my TBR. My brother took this picture of the eclipse from his house in South Carolina.

I don't know how I've never seen this tag before. The above is from my review, when I read this 5 years ago.
#BookReport I finished up five for #middlegradeMarch Thanks to all those who participated! One seasonal cozy, one time travel and one suspense.
pick#seasonalcozies March pick @julieclair
pick#BookReport #MiddleGradeMarch #dontjudgeabookbyitscover All of my books this week were 4 and 4.5 Stars. It was difficult to choose a favorite. I decided on The Town With No Mirrors; a middle grade dystopian about of the importance of body image. It was quite unique.
#MiddleGradeMarch #BookReport
I'm fortunate that I can listen to audiobooks while I work. It makes the day so much more enjoyable. Comfort is the second in a series, and my only five star this week. The Tale of Despereaux is a three star read All the rest are four stars.

My favorite book of the week is The Lost Year. I wonder if I can find anything to top it by the end of the month.

pickI love time travel, this was a little different than my usual historical type. I'm finding that I really enjoy techno thrillers! It sucked me in for sure.

Murder on Valentine's Day 3.5🌟
I enjoyed this short story a little better than book one.
Her Royal Spyness 4🌟
I wasn't sure which month this was set, turns out it was an April. I thoroughly enjoyed the historical UK setting.
pick#BookedInTime: Russian Revolution
February 2024
@cuilin @dabbe
This was a low pick, mainly due to the fictional parts of this book. The mystery and twist at the end didn't work for me at all, since I already knew the ending. I would recommend reading a nonfiction account instead.
#FebruaryTBR I'm looking forward to this stack! Romance: Book Lovers and Just Once.
Cozy mysteries: Her Royal Spyness & Murder on Valentine's Day. Nonfiction: Into Thin Air & The Hiding Place. Speculative fiction: Where the Lemon Trees Grow. Classic: Miss Buckle's Book. Thriller: Moon of the Crusted Snow. Sci-fi: Lost in Time. Historical fiction: The Last Bookshop in London & The Kitchen Boy.
