Reader. Writer. Secular Homeschooler. Board game strategist and book collector. Potato enthusiast.

I believe in science and basic human decency, and masking for safety and community care.
For some reason, when I picked this up, I thought it was fiction, but it's a memoir. It was a short, but heavy read, definitely aimed toward the middle grade crowd. Heartbreaking. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I Fell In Love With Hope. Lancali has a way with words for sure. The prose was beautiful, but I struggled to follow the plot. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Highly recommend this book! It's in graphic novel format, which isn't usually my cup of tea, but it makes it accessible for kids and adults. I don't recall learning about Japanese internment camps in my public school history classes, so you can bet this is being included in my homeschool lessons.

A mix of The Hunger Games and Handmaid's Tale.....I think this book is going to stay in my head for a long time. Underneath it all, it's a story of the importance of women supporting women and building communities that hold each other up. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This book was freaking adorable. I devoured it in a day. No notes. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'm always in the mood for a D&D / tabletop gaming book.

I once heard someone say if you want to learn something about a topic you know very little about, start with children's books because they'll break it down for you in simple terms. This book is a perfect example of that. Kind of want to create a unit study with it.

I kept hearing how good this book was, so I finally read it, and guys. I am MAD about it. The last few chapters? Please tell me I'm not alone in this.

I finished reading Variation by Rebecca Yarros today and it's such a beautiful story of family, and dreams, and second chances. So good.

My family didn't celebrate Christmas when I was growing up. Now that I have my own family, I feel the need to pack in All.Of.The.Things all month long. To make up for it, I guess?

Anyway, here's a giant lighted snowman.

Got a Christmas present early! Don't want to waste a single moment of that free Kindle Unlimited for three months. 😂

Just spent the day reading A Well Trained Wife. So much of it resonates with things I heard growing up and I haven't even begun to unpack the religious trauma. I couldn't put it down.
