3.5 stars. I loved the setting! So charming and Solomon fully immerses the reader in the culture. In this second chance romance Dani collides with her former love Wouter (pronounced vow-ter) and they embark on a fake marriage. Despite years of no contact (he was previously an exchange student), sparks seemed to fly and they moved right in together as if no time had passed or as if they kept on knowing each other without interval lives. I liked Wouter but Dani seemed a bit all over the place. This was enjoyable but I felt the chemistry/romance was a bit lacking. I listened via audio on Libby.

“The Cartoonists Club: a graphic novel by Raina Telgemeier is Easily one of my favorite books I’ve read all year! It’s some of Raina’s best work and I STRONGLY RECOMMEND it!

It was a cool sneak peak at the end of the Captain Underpants book and it was in comic style and so cool because I just saw the movie recently. Now I want to read the full Dog Man book.

I enjoyed this book. I listened to it while I did a lot of gardening and walking. It is a series and a fun summer read.

Great book!

The adventure in the book was really entertaining

Great book. Highly recommend for 4th graders and up.

I went into this book with some skepticism because I wasn’t sure how a space-related sapphic romance would pan out, but Taylor Jenkins Reid delivered! The meat of this book is actually flashbacks leading up to the shuttle disaster, with snippets of the catastrophe interspersed throughout. Joan and Vanessa are two astronauts in the 1980s who defy odds, overcome sexism and develop mutual respect and affection. Joan balances her career and family drama largely created by her self-centered sister. The relationship between Joan and her endearing niece Frances really tugged at my heartstrings. I love TJR’s way with words and the narration of this audiobook. This was great!

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

So suspenseful yet so exciting! Harry can’t seem to stay out of trouble!
