But the team needs a great kicker and they convince Grace it will work. Senior year will be a time for new friends, old friends, college recruiting visits, wild parties, prom, confusion, despair, pink hair, podcasts, haters, and lots of football!

This book has a lot of cliffhangers! It’s also very exciting. My favorite character is Percy Jackson, I like that he is the son of Poseidon. If you like Greek Mythology and excitement, you will LOVE this book series!

Sunday

book cover


Real streak of winning books lately, absolutely incredible work on display, the large size and gorgeous illustrations really help you get lost in the paranoid, anxious, and nothing-ness of an unproductive Sunday. Firmly planted some James Brown in my ear despite being a book--also proof that you can have a protagonist that is being incredible unlikeable from start to finish and you can still see yourself in them, or maybe just seeing yourself see yourself in them. Good stuff. Been reading lots of graphic novels that are acclaimed lately that I actually don't like so it's nice to read one that WAS actually enjoyable.

J Vs. K
by Kwame Alexander

book cover


This illustrated chapter book was such a delight! In this meta collab between two powerhouses, fifth graders J and K go from rivals butting heads to friends who work together to win the annual writing contest. This book is insanely clever, fun for readers of all ages, and memorable. Some moments have just the right amount of cringe- other moments are surprisingly tender and kind. I loved the dialogue, the vocab infusion, the art, and the humility of it all. This is just the book I wanted to read with my elementary daughter!
