I don’t usually like many books that are based off of movies but I had to give this one a try because it was based off of one of my all time favorite 80s movies The Breakfast Club and it lived up to the hype. It kept me reading for hours with all of the plot twists and diverse characters. All of the characters are written in depth and it leaves you wanting to know more. I will definitely be checking out the next book in the series!

So far i have read chapter one and i find it very enjoyable and it shows off the main character's personality a bit, the main problem/the main character's home life. we also get to see a friend :)

It had a sligtly slow start, but it quickly picked up and became a page turner. A young woman goes to Australia with her husband and his 2 kids (her stepkids) to Australia and end up going to a private island where a tragic accident occurs, setting off a chain of events

Flint is my favorite poem from here. Saw him on AGT and had to get his book. Super great. He can get a little religious which isn’t typically my cup of tea but it wasn’t too much. Still a great poet and sooo amazing.

I love learning new fancy words with Fancy Nancy. I also pretended that I needed glasses one time.

A blend of the modern day and the historical. Set on (fictional) Winthrop Island, the book flips back and forth between the present day lives of Audrey, her actress mother, and her bartender father, and a November night in 1846, when the steamship Atlantic gets caught in a storm, suffers a catastrophic disaster, and sinks in Long Island Sound. This book does have some characters from other books of Williams', but can be read as a stand-alone as well. Great summer vacation read: engaging story + historical substance.

I liked how it showed how people lived a long time ago in the old days. I didn't like the pictures as much as some other books.

A typical beach read from Jennifer Weiner taking place on the outer Cape. I have read many of her books and have enjoyed them for their storytelling and pure escapism. This one did not disappoint although I had to construct a family tree to keep track of all the twists and turns. There were so many skeletons in the closet with this one especially when Ronnie’s son ended up having a tryst with her granddaughter’s fiancé. The author always ties up her books with a big reveal at the end.

This was not my favorite book because I’m not really interested in planets.

A wonderful book for animal lovers, especially rescued cats. A little slow at times, it does work as a memoir. And architecture lovers will enjoy reading about the unique house Caleb built. And nature lovers will appreciate the vivid descriptions of the Taconic mountain. It's a light summer read, great for small moments. But be ready to cry at the end.
