book cover


Book published in 2006 and the data was scary then. It is horrifying now. There must be enough smart politicians in this country to see the science and the obvious disaster awaiting the next generation. We all have to work together toward the same solution and not accept the defeatist attitude 'If that country doesn

I loved this book. It's about cats that are misunderstood. People think they are so, so cute and don't believe that the cats can do real human jobs, but the cats prove them wrong. I like that they added real cat pictures in with the drawings.

My 4.5 year old loved this book and would rate it 5 stars. I thought this was one of the hokier books in the Magic Treehouse and did not find it as interesting and educational as some of the other more historical tales.

I enjoyed this short novel-in-verse penned by Arriel Vinson, one of Reese’s LitUp fellows. There are beautiful, poetic moments especially as Jae skates. I enjoyed the bit of a love story and how this book felt like a coming-of-age/maturation moment. I listened to the audiobook on Spotify

Look Closer

I listened to this audiobook on Libby because it was picked for the Portland State alumni book club. I enjoyed the various perspectives and unreliable narrators in this tale of a Halloween murder. The plot skips around in time and feels like a tangled web of infidelity, betrayal, and financially motivated deceit. While rather elaborate in plotting and timeline, I did enjoy this twists and felt it was well paced.
