Great book! Loved the twist and turns

Really enjoyed this! Some speculative elements that I wish got more cerebral, but maybe the end just wasn't for me

If you like baseball, you'll love this story. Between Joey's Italian family, which revolve all events around food - and Bobbi's family, that own a llama farm, these two young kids find they have more common that they realize. A funny and serious book for middle grade readers.

Did not like it at all!!!

Book 2 of Millicent Quibb did not disappoint! What a fun and adventurous tale once again! This book sets us up perfectly for book 3! I cannot wait!

A beautifully tragic book about two sisters navigating life through WW2, their journey and the bravery they displayed during an unimaginable time. This story will give you all the feels and a heart warming ending

This is the first novel I've read in a very long time that actually made my cry... twice! Set just after the "Great Hunger" (potato famine) in Ireland, we are introduced to a sprawling tale of a family both struggling and benefitting from their connection to the land. There is great loss faced in this tale, but also great tenacity and determination. The female characters are written as bold, more so than their male counterparts, which I enjoyed. O'Farrell truly succeeds at world-building and this is one of her best to date.

Liked how short the stories were because I could focus more on each one. They reminded me of parables told by Jesus in the bible—thought provoking, a lesson in each story, but usually not straightforward. Enjoyed the humor in some of them, but others were a little on the dark side. I didn’t love this book because most of the stories seemed nonsensical to me and couldn’t figure out how they chose the titles. Still an interesting read.

Ah, Percy and Sam…you were lovable from the start. This is the story of growing up and making mistakes and finding your way with each other, of choosing to love each other well in spite of mess ups. Loved this book.

Beginning was interesting, but it got confusing trying to keep track of all the names. Gradually became boring. Too much statistical information.
