I like it because it has a lot of details and it is also funny

Not one of his best…started off strong but then got too confusing!

This book series is full of fun adventure, fantasy, and romance. It keeps you intrigued with its plot twists around every corner, or in this case, every turn of a page. I have enjoyed this series and hope and believe that you will too.

I picked up this tiny book of poetry because I have immense fondness for Sharon Creech’s novel Walk Two Moons. I blazed through this in one sitting- reading a physical copy while listening to the audiobook aptly narrated by Scott Wolf. The youthful voice of an elementary boy shines through the simple poetic prose. It took me a bit to get into the narrative but a linear story unfolds that is both sweet and tugs at the heartstrings. Moments reminded me of Beverly Cleary’s Dear Mr. Henshaw. I recommend this quick read.

This is a sweet story about children welcoming their parent home from a trip with the things they think are important to him. When they arrive at the airport with all of the things, their dad lovingly accepts the grand gesture and also lets them know they are the best part of coming home. The illustrations are bright and fun.

I enjoyed this book. A nice thriller with lots of twists and nice pace.

This heartfelt story that is a squeal to Circus Mirandus is about a boy named Micah coming to live in a magical circus. In the circus Micah can tie magical knots in which hold memories and strong connections. As the story goes on Micah’s power grows and soon he does not know if he can control it or not. Then all of a sudden his grandmother Victoria the bird women comes to the Circus after betraying them many years ago and it’s Micah who’s the center of the circus’s power to destroy Victoria.-written by Mackenzie

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.

Loved this book so much. It is well written, suspenseful, full of adventure & love. It is like a warm hug!

This book was recommended by a coworker and I listened to the audio via Libby. Overall, this book gave me a lot to think about regarding current comforts, personal physical challenges, and mental fortitude. While I may not follow through with all of the book’s calls to action, I do think I’ll try to embrace some of its spirit.
