This book’s plot started out seeming like a well-known rom-com plot of “fake dating leads to real love”. That is the basic theme, but the book is entertaining along the way with a lot of pieces to the plot. I really enjoyed the book.

I love how she worked hard and learned to read.

I liked this book. It was really funny. I would recommend this book to other kids. I can’t wait to read more books

A staff pick and a beautifully written short book by poet Aimee N. While not poems, the short stories written about flora and fauna are poetic in nature. The author picks specific subjects that have meaning in her life and intertwines scientific facts with stories about her family as well as about world issues. The stories about the Potoo and the Octopus were favorites.

Annie Barrows and Sophie Blackall did a wonderful job with the Ivy and Bean series and Stella and Marigold is nothing short of that. I love that each chapter told a different story!!!! I give it 5 stars!!!!

Re-reading

This was entertaining! I loved the Hunger Games x Greek Mythology vibe, and the ending has me looking forward to the sequel next month!

If you're looking for nonstop action, then this is the book for you! I love CIA/FBI thrillers, and this new character for me, the Gray Man, was terrific. The story of an off-the-books hero, intervening to get information into the hands of the right people before a political debacle was just what I needed for a "light" summer book. If you like books like Daniel Silva, Vince Flynn or Brad Thor, this will be a good choice. Lots of action between the good guys and the baddies. Women heroes in it, too. And villains!!

Predictable, but a fun read. I didn't really love the way the point of view was done in the book, but I still enjoyed the characters.

I like this beef because I can read it myself
