Rocket’s 100th Day Of School (Step into Reading)
by Tad Hills
View in Library Catalog
Great story!
Jaws
by Peter Benchley
View in Library Catalog
Gorier and better than the movie. The plot line with his wife seeking affirmation from her rich summer crowd and Matthew seemed unnecessary. I like a good monster book. As a bonus I read this book at the beach while sitting in a chair in the water for added effect.
There's Something About Sweetie
by Sandhya Menon
View in Library Catalog
I enjoyed it, but I almost felt like Sweetie was too perfect--Ashish was a good, kind person, but he also had some flaws which made him feel more real/natural, whereas Sweetie was presented as an almost perfect person which took me out of the experience. Plus, there were moments where Ashish's romantic feelings felt a bit too intense (as in, the way that Menon described it felt a bit sacchrine). Lastly, I wish Ashish's basketball issue (his lack of balltopia) had more time on the page since the only time it ends up really being mentioned is when they play HORSE and it turns into making out and then at the end when he finds balltopia again (although it's not clear if it was just a coincidence or what)
Efren Divided
by Ernesto Cisneros
View in Library Catalog
This book was both heartwarming and heartbreaking with a touch of humor. The book is about a kid’s mom, who gets deported one day while he’s at school. But just to add to the drama, he loses a friend, has to take care of his little siblings alone, and tries to be elected school president. It’s an amazing book, and I definitely recommend it to anyone who has ever felt alone.
Lessons from a Scarlet Lady
by Emma Wildes
View in Library Catalog
This was a romance novel involving 2 friends, one trying to spice up her marriage and the other trying to cath the attention of the man she loves. Done with the help of a banned book published by a former high class prostitute. Its fun and steamy
To Sir Phillip, With Love
by Julia Quinn
View in Library Catalog
Overall, this was an enjoyable novel and par for the course for a Bridgerton romance. However, I wished there was more interactions between the twins and Eloise and/or Phillip.
The Content of Our Character
by Shelby Steele
View in Library Catalog
Very thought provoking. Though published in the 90s many points hold true today and have become increasingly relevant as racial tensions rise in America. I marked so many interesting facts and thoughts I ended up buying my own copy to keep all my notes in haha
The Last Wish
by Andrzej Sapkowski
View in Library Catalog

Today I Will Fly! (an Elephant and Piggie Book)
by Mo Willems

Piggie makes me wish I could fly. This is a very funny book.
Christine
by Stephen King
View in Library Catalog
As always King does not disappoint. I was frustrated with Arnie the whole time as I watched the grip Christine/LeBay’s ghost had on him grow and he alienated everyone and destroyed his entire life. The part at the end where the police try to crush the car into a little cube and one swears it but him...and you are left imagining the cube slowly popping back, growing bigger, and Christine putting herself back together. Also made me not want to eat burgers in a car for a long time.
