Ban This Book
by Alan Gratz
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Although this book is considered a “middle reader” book, it is a delightful story of a fourth grade girl and her friends response to book banning in the elementary school library. The audiobook narrator was very good. Is the response engineered by Amy Ann, et al something fourth graders could pull off? Maybe. The banned books include Harriet the Spy, Matilda, Is That You, God? It’s Me, Margaret and other classics. This book has been banned in Florida? Is there any other reason necessary to read this book?

The Metamorphosis
by Franz Kafka

book cover


I’m personally interpreting this as a metaphor for sudden disability. The way Gregor is hindered in all of his tasks and has to get used to his new body. His family is ashamed of him and keep him locked in his room and they feel relieved when he dies. It’s honestly really sad.

The Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book Four: Battle of the Labyrinth

This book has a lot of cliffhangers! It’s also very exciting. My favorite character is Percy Jackson, I like that he is the son of Poseidon. If you like Greek Mythology and excitement, you will LOVE this book series!

The Comfort Crisis

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.

Keeper Of The Lost Cities

book cover


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.

Battle Of The Bookstores
by Ali Brady

book cover


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.
