This week’s theme is spooky, scary books, a genre, I admit, is not one that I read that often. I’m not a huge fan of spooky books, tv shows, and movies, so it was honestly difficult to come up with ten titles that I’ve read recently! I focused on middle grade…

Lots of work late led to little time to read, but I was able to finish Hope in the Holler by Lisa Lewis Tyre – it was a sweet story about what home looks like and how to find it. I just started Harbor Me by Jacqueline Woodson and I’m already looking…

I’m not a HUGE fantasy reader, which is where a lot of those really long titles are, but I’ve created a list of books that are all close to or over 500 pages (which, I think, is still a lot!). Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling…
