Dear Barbara Park- Thank you for this novella! I give it 5 out of 5 birds. A friend recently recommended this to me and I'm so glad she did. I had no idea it was by the author of Junie B Jones until the end. She manages to make you love a character in the... Continue Reading →
Okay GorDON Korman, you get a full chicken dinner of five out of five birds for Restart. Was it cheesy? Maybe a little bit but I absolutely loved the message and the feeling I was left with. The book is written in many students perspectives and really allows you to see the WHOLE picture. You... Continue Reading →
I'll give L.M. Montgomery 4 out of 5 birds for Anne's House of Dreams. Anne is one of my all time favorite characters, but I didn't feel like she was all there in this book. I had glimpses of her, but I didn't get the same feelings as some of the first few books. I... Continue Reading →
I give Caitlin Doughty and her novel Will My Cat Say My Eyeballs? five out of five birds! If you love fun facts, death, and facts about dead people this is your next read or listen. It's a compilation of questions that kids have asked Caitlin who owns a funeral home and she answers them... Continue Reading →
I give Dana Mele's book People Like Us 3 out of 5 birds. The beginning of this book drew me in but then I lost my gumption for it in the middle. I finished it and the ending was not completely what I expected, so I felt redeemed. It was very mean girl vs... Continue Reading →
I give V.C. Andrews 4 out of 5 birds for his book Flowers in the Attic. This may be one of the most messed up books I have ever read. I mean it may even knock Baby Teeth out of the running. The idea was original and intriguing but WAY over the top. This book... Continue Reading →
I give You Too? by Janet Gurtler 5 out of 5 birds! I received this months ago from Netgalley but had such a hard time opening hence the delay.... But I'm so glad I did! I think everyone should read it. My eyes were open to new ways of thinking. Ideas that were not even... Continue Reading →
I sadly give The Burning a 3 out of 5 birds. I’d do 2.5 but no one wants to see half a bird… I want to thank NETGALLEY for a free copy of this book in exchange for my HONEST review. I wanted to LOVE this book but I did not. If you want to... Continue Reading →
The Button War deserves 5 out of 5 birds from me! I was recommended this book by a school librarian who knows that my taste isn't unicorns, rainbows, and happiness. It was opposite of that. The Button War had a feeling similar to Lord of the Flies.... When I was reading it I was under... Continue Reading →
I give this book 3 out of 5 birds. I didn't love it but I didn't despise it. I'm actually a huge fan of Laurie Halse Anderson (SPEAK). This one I felt like the language was so overdone that it was hard to keep focused. There was an entire chapter with the same sentence, which... Continue Reading →
