Blended, by Sharon M. Draper

Eleven-year-old Isabella’s blended family is more divided than ever in this thoughtful story about divorce and racial identity.

IF ONLY that was all this book was about! The reader bears witness to Isabella's family troubles, and is by her side as life rears it's ugly head.....all you can do is hope that Isabella can escape unscathed.

Wonderful read!

Amazing mystery.....by author Karen M. McManus!

Another fantastic mystery by Karen M. McManus (author of One of Us is Lying).

What I used to love about mysteries was being able to solve it before the author resolved it. Now, I've learned to appreciate the multiple possible solutions and am flummoxed until the end.
McManus has a way of keeping me interested by giving me SO MANY possibilities. Is it her? Is it him? Is it all of them? and WHY?

I could hardly put the book down as I tried to solve another intriguing mystery by crafty McManus.

Dear sister, by Alison McGhee

Where do I begin?????

I have seen much a-do about this book and now I know why.

I just received it in my monthly JLG box (which contained a few others I will post about shortly) and read it while at my desk.....IT WAS AMAZING!  I sobbed as I finished this gentle graphic novel about a young boy dealing with a new baby as she grows into a toddler, a sister...a friend. His journey is described through short notes and drawings. The reader is taken through his journey as he grows-up. What a BEAUTIFUL story! 5 STARS!
