Don't you just love a good list? I do. Especially a list about books. Here you can find some of my favourite book lists.
Book Lists
The National Simultaneous Storytime book for 2022 has been announced - Family Tree by Josh Pyke and Ronojoy Ghosh.
Loved receiving this package from @schoollibrariansunited
Lynette Noni seems to take pleasure in her readers’ pain. That’s the only explanation for the cruel ending and the build up in this book that had me putting down the book and needing time away to just breathe and recover and psych myself up again for more torment. But it’s a good pain. Sometimes.
I so enjoy reading Denise Hunter’s books. I know once I pick one up, I’ll just disappear into the world and characters she has crafted and I know that I will love every word. And that’s exactly what I got in Riverbend Gap. This book is the first in a new series (yay) that follows a family (yay, yay) living in a small rural town along the Appalachian Trail (more yay). Honestly, between the amazing romance, stunning scenery so beautifully described, the drama and tension and the great writing, I just loved this book.
Putting the final touches on my genrefication webinar presentation for next week. I’m enjoying diving back into the research and latest trends around the topic. Also posting a thread on Twitter as I go.
Loving the latest ACCESS edition from @ASLA. Currently reading Storytelling with Data by the amazing Kay Oddone. Such powerful words for empowering leadership in the library and how we can use data to prove to leaders just how important school libraries and school librarians are. Taking lots of notes!

My Review Rating System
♥♥♥♥♥ – Much Love
5-starred ratings are for books I LOVED!! I would re-read it or it left me with an amazing feeling at the end – blown away, moved or just really impressed.
♥♥♥♥ – Love
A 4 indicates a great book. It has everything to make it a great story and is highly recommended.
♥♥♥ – Like
A 3 means a pretty good story but there were a few things that didn’t work for me. No reason why another reader couldn’t love it.
♥♥ – Dislike
2-star reviews are for books that I had some serious issues with. These books just weren’t for me.
♥ – I don’t give one star ratings. If I dislike a book that much I probably wouldn’t finish it and won’t review it.
