Summer Reading Celebration

I can see where the appeal is but I didn't much care for it. Girl meets girl, girl falls in love with girl and is forced apart by disapproving family. The historical significance of such a story, based on stories of lesbians in the Asian American community are important too and should be told I just didn't really care for this one. The main character Lily only showed strength of character once she found something she was passionate about and that was the sciences and Kath. Lily's friend Cheryl was not a very good friend and I personally dislike her from the get go but she was helpful in making her opinion, which was socially acceptable, very clear when it came to roles of women and what they should and shouldn't be doing. I appreciated what this book stands for and wh9 it was written for and it just wasnt for me.

Cute story. Read with Grandson.

I loved the movie. Read the book. Loved the book. Separately though. Is my brain fully formed?

If you are a fan of UFOs and Flying Saucers and government cover ups you will find this book, like the one he wrote about the Bermuda Triangle, interesting reading. He revisited this topic in the 70’s and much has been written since this book was written but this one started it all. It does kind of drag in places and goes off on tangents but it is an easy read and is referenced in more modern texts.

Interesting read and great pictures of this military jet. My grandson loved it.

I love this series and I love this book!! Reread!

A heartbreaking sorry of what happens when children don't learn how to fail. The book highlights how social media tends to exacerbate problems for young perfectionists today as opposed to those of prior generations.

That was really good and quite digestible for a fantasy

Pirates of the Caribbean meets Chronicles of Narnia. Privateers, Navy, fauns, minotaurs, humans and elves with plenty of magic oh my! There were parts that were slow or dragged too much for my liking but, for the most part it was well placed. I did not like the MFC but she grew on me. Honor Renn, Navy blue mage, is left adrift until she is picked up by the notorious Ship of Spells. On-board is an eclectic crew of misfits amd a charismatic captain. There battles on land and sea, treachery, loathing, love and a ton of magic. Thoroughly enjoyed all of the tension on board the ship between Honor Renn, the crewand the enigmatic captain Thanavar!

Yeah.....not for me. Especially because I really am interested in the history of the place.
