I really liked this book because it had a really good plot and it made all of the other books way easier to understand. I really liked this book.

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!

It was a cool sneak peak at the end of the Captain Underpants book and it was in comic style and so cool because I just saw the movie recently. Now I want to read the full Dog Man book.

This book is like a warm chocolate chip cookie- warm, sweet and brings a smile to my face! This is my favorite full-length Ali Brady book, which I listened to on audio via Libby. If you’re a fan of You’ve Got Mail and Book Lovers, read this great feel-good romance. Josie manages a literary fiction bookstore while Ryan manages a romance bookstore. The mutual owner merges the spaces and forces them to compete for the sole managerial role. Rivalry ensues and chemistry starts crackling! I enjoyed this quite a bit.

it is really interesting and funny

For readers who have met New York author (and eventual resident of Maine) Lucy Barton in Strout’s other books, this is an interesting deep dive into her life. It focuses on a period in. Barton’s life where her children were young and she is in the hospital for nine weeks with a severe infection following routine surgery. Not sure if I would have enjoyed this story if I hadn’t read about Barton in Strout’s other books.

Loved this one quite a bit, always been a huge fan of robot stories and their ability to question what makes us human, and this one does a good job with it. Also very refreshing to see a robot story that isn't about them going rogue or otherwise revolting against humanity, instead asking "what would it look like if a robot had limitless love for its human?"

It was a very detailed and amazing book with lots of twists and turns awaiting you around every bend.

I like what this book is about.
