Dreaming of You
This book was really fun to read. There was more gore than I thought there would be but this book was funny and reflective and the poetry was great. I got confused about the point of view for some of them but I was probably just reading it too fas...

It was really informative and useful to learn about the pre-existing conditions that caused the protests in 2020, such as for profit healthcare, unemployment, and the senseless murder by police of unarmed black people. There were great tips on how...

The Kite Runner
This book was much sadder than I expected it to be. Some themes of the book are war, family, guilt, death, and loyalty. The characters were well fleshed out and we watch them age and mature along side historical events. Readers learn so much about...

Date & Time

Starfish
A really well written verse novel about fatphobia and bullying. I thought the events in the book were pretty unrealistic but the authors note in the back says these are things that actually happened which was very shocking. I can’t imagine these t...
