It was a cool book. My favorite part was when they rode with the knight.

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

Great story!

Cool! They dropped the flag so early.

This is about Maria having a Christmas celebration with family. She has a new cousin named Ruben. At church she sees a lonely Mr. Liuez so they invite him to their party.

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.

This is a fantastic book of Bertrice Small. It follows the titular character through multiple adventures and multiple marriages. No one can write romance like thr late Bertrice Small.

This is my favorite book. Although it was originally written for children/tweens, I think will always be relevant to me no matter what age. The story follows protagonist Salamanca Tree Hiddle as she travels across state borders with her grandparents to visit her mother, all the while telling the extravagant tales of Phoebe Winterbottom and Ms. Cadaver. Not many books are as perfectly written as this one, but Creech does it once again, pulling at your heartstrings and making your spirit sing Salamanca's story.

Its a nice book so if you stop reading at a chapter your going to be curious about what happens in the next chapter.

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)
