I like when Mrs. Gorf turns everyone into apples.

Taking lessons from American & European history, we find all the obvious lessons & clues to point us to how today in 2025 we have democracy being challenged and a tyrant taking control.

I think this book should be read because it has an interesting story plot and a good compromise.

3.5 stars. This was a decent YA read that follows 17-year old Madeline in a sort of coming-of-age romance. Her brother is engaged to a woman who Mads fears may not be the right fit. This book is about her family interactions as well as many firsts- dates, kiss, and more. I liked the premise but felt like this book lost its way slightly in the love triangle aspect with potential suitor Connor and Marco. I appreciate that this book was not totally expected and messy at times in a real life sort of way. I listened to an ARC audiobook on NetGalley.

Guys listen to me, I know this is volume 19 of a series you will probably never read but it needs be remarked that everytime an adventure shoujo series surpasses 15 volumes it suddenly picks up steam and is just eminently readable. This series is no exception, truly one of the best manga confessions and rejections I've read in a hot minute cause I just like all of these characters so much and they don't act out of character just for the plot to progress as so many manga. Snow White with the Red Hair & Yona of the Dawn supremacy forever!!

Very interesting book. It talks about how a girl names Sophie finds out sh is an elf, and is brought to a place called the Lost Cities. She finds out that she has multiple abilities and she gets kidnapped by a band of rebels called the Neverseen ( though she doesn't know they are called the Neverseen yet). Her human parents' memories of her get erased because the elves are super secretive against the humans because the humans betrayed them. She starts school called Foxfire (yes, a fungus) and the first friend she makes is named Dex Dizznee. The Neverseen also kidnapps him, because he just so happens to be in the cave with her when she gets abducted. 10/10 story.

4.5 stars. Jack and Annie travel to the prairie and visit a dugout schoolhouse, write with chalk on slate and befriend pioneers. They encounter a twister and have to hide in a storm cellar. This is one of their more exciting and endearing adventures.

Super good and really good for birdwatching.

Book was great! Worked on gh sounds and read the book 2x

Like the gospels but worse. Supposedly his masterpiece too bad his masterpiece is garbage. One star though because under the dust jacket is a beautiful cover with gold embossing and text is done with a letterpress.
