“I love Jeff’s books because they are so funny. And they are fun to read. I almost have all the books” -Mason 7 yo

I read this book with my 4.5 year old. In this story, Jack and Annie go to the first Thanksgiving with the Pilgrims and Wampanoag Native Americans in Plymouth. Squanto was the strongest presence but otherwise I felt this was a lot of unrealized potential.

I really liked the book because it was nice to read in bed and it felt funny and relaxing at the same time! I really liked how PANDANIA gave each of them a family that sort of enhanced their personality.

This book has creepy details like a mad scientist who takes children's lives, but the art makes it a little playful as well. Has you wanting to read the second book!

3.75 stars rounded up. In the world of Ali Hazelwood, this book was somewhat lower tier and forgettable, but it’s still a fun summer read. I liked the setting (Italy), the audiobook’s dual narration (primarily FMC POV w/MMC speaking), the chemistry and general blend of tropes (age gap, brother’s best friend, handsome rich MMC). I felt like there was an attempt to make this a friends-to-lovers romance but it felt more like a second chance turned instalove, which left me conflicted.

This book is a sequel to Circus Mirandus by Cassie Beasley.

good reader, great characters both primary and secondary

I listened to this audiobook on Spotify after seeing universal praise for this debut epistolary novel. I thought this story of aging Sybil Van Antwerp was engaging and diverse, covering all aspects of her life and varied interactions with others. The narration was great. I can see the appeal of the tender, painful tale.

I read this book because I’m a fan of the Meant to Be series in which various authors retell Disney princess stories. This modernization of Mulan was ok. I kept thinking how I might have made different choices as the author, but I did get a kick out of Mushu. This book was a bit forgettable for me. I listened to it on Audible using my monthly Amazon Music Unlimited credit.
