How did you get this book: A friend recommended it to me.
Summary: A young boy travels with his friends and his dog into the woods to find his mama who disappeared all of a sudden.
pickAfter the disappearance of his mother, eleven year old Riley sets out with his best friend, his dog & Dylan, an 8th grader & Riley‘s secret crush, to look for the Whispers—magical fairies who will grant him whatever he wishes for if he leaves the right tribute. A poignant coming-of-age story about a courageous young boy as he navigates friendship, sexuality, & family in the aftermath of his mother‘s disappearance. Highly recommended MG read.
Going with another MG book garnering rave reviews for my next read.
Super fun evening of BBQ & Book Browsing/Buying with the always fabulous @ElishaLovesBooks !!! I love visiting Unabridged Bookstore—their sale section is fantastic. Both fiction & nonfiction tonight. I have Uprooted in hardcover but wanted a paperback to carry around & beat up. I haven‘t read any of the others in the stack but they all look real interesting. Also picked up one new MG release, the tagged book, about which I‘ve seen rave reviews.
Next read is by my friend Greg Howard. Watch for this one!! Coming in January!
I need a happy, light-hearted book that might make me cry (but out of happiness): taking any and all #bookrecs!
