Anne’s House of Dreams

It's late on a school night as I write this post, but I feel somehow that I'd be remiss in letting February pass by without sharing at least one book review for our #12MonthsofBooks theme. This month the goal was to read books based around the idea that "The Greatest of these is Love." And… Continue reading Anne’s House of Dreams

The Consolation of Doubt

Can I tell you a story? It involves a bit of jumping around in time and place, but I think it's worth telling. Last month I read a book by Frederick Buechner called The Remarkable Ordinary. It wasn't the first of his books I've read--a few years back I read his book Telling the Truth, and I… Continue reading The Consolation of Doubt

I love it for many reasons, but one of the main reasons is that Meg Ryan's character, Kathleen Kelly, is a book lover. So much so, in fact, that she runs a children's bookshop. In the movie she says When… Continue reading Caroline by Sarah Miller

Two Spooky Stories

We're snowed in again, which means I've been able to spend more time than normal reading, and I'm not complaining! That's why today's book review is actually two in one. I finished both of these books this week, and since they have some similarities, I thought I'd share them with you in one post. The… Continue reading Two Spooky Stories

Another Brooklyn by Jacqueline Woodson

Back in November of last year I attended NCTE's huge annual conference. If you're unfamiliar with NCTE, it stands for the National Council of Teachers of English, and their annual conference is a pretty big deal. The first time I went, in 2016, I referred to it as "the big one," and my friends and family mocked me… Continue reading Another Brooklyn by Jacqueline Woodson

A Few Reviews

It's officially Christmas break, which means it's that time of the year when I turn my attention to finishing my 50 book goal for the year. Some times this can be a daunting task, but this year I've discovered a lazy and ingenious hack to help finish my reading goal. Are you ready for it?… Continue reading A Few Reviews
