This book brings Jack and Annie to Australia. They obtain the final gift they need to help the dog Teddy and finish their four-part quest. We learned about kangaroos and there was a scary wildfire.

First loved it when I started the book , then was unsure, then ended really enjoying the journey. Definitely not as predictable as it thought it would be.

Your body might be fragile, not you.

A great author can make complex characters come to life even in a short book. Over a long weekend in June, Gail is blindsided by an announcement from her boss, surprised to find her ex-husband on her doorstep with a rescue cat in tow, and confronted by events from her own past on the day of her only child’s wedding. Gail thought she had her life perfectly in control, but is it a happy life?

it is really interesting and funny

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 is a great book of complexity, and family fighting issues. I love this book because it sent me into a new world of reading the 39 clues series.

A real thriller!

Three half Japanese / half English sisters spend their summer in their seaside childhood home, looking back on their pasts, reveling in summer delights, and discerning their futures. They are joined by their fussy old great-grandmother, a beloved five-year-old nephew, and three childhood friends.

I read this for a bookclub, and it was not for me. The story follows the life of Isaac Dahl. This book isn’t that long, but the titular character’s life is (as promised) very long. The problem is, I never cared about the characters. They felt stiff. This felt like more of a catalog of events over time. Everything felt like an observation rather than emotion and personality driving action. I appreciate the LGBTQ representation in the first person protagonist but never really got into this audiobook I borrowed via Libby.
