The Skull
by Jon Klassen
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This book is recommended for grade 1 - 4, ages 6-9. It is formatted as a chapter book. I thought it was dark for a children's book. I've read this author before and he often has an unusual twist in his stories. I felt like a 6 year would be a little scared after reading this book. I would recommend for older kids.

Just For The Summer
by Abby Jimenez

book cover


This book was a lot more emotionally fraught than I expected it to be. Jimenez handled discussions of grief and parental abuse well, and while I disagreed with the FMC’s actions, I was still able to empathize. The author consulted many nurses and therapists while writing the book and it shows in the depth of understanding and empathy given to the characters.

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.

Great Big Beautiful Life: Reese's Book Club

book cover


This book spent so much time going through Margret’s ancestry that it didn’t spend enough time developing the relationship between the two main characters. I felt like we jumped from “who is he?” to “I love you” at an unreasonable pace. But I still enjoyed it enough to get to the good twist at the end!

The Cruel Prince

Chapter 19 - In this chapter Jude is learning from the "Ghost" who is teaching her how to spy for Prince Dain. The Ghost is showing her how to kill, camouflage herself, and leave undetected. She is doing this in the name of Prince Dain - but prior to this assignment, she was not a person who killed.

The Partner Plot

This book got kind of frustrating by the end. Two people continuously dance around the same issues, then the FMC main character makes the same (bad) decision that the MMC made at the beginning of the novel. Of course there’s a happy ending though, that’s what I came for.
