so-soThis is my second chosen book! I found this story to be very raw and emotional. For instance, this book touches on hard themes, like alcoholism and poverty. I am unsure if this is a book I would have in my classroom due to the mature themes, but I would recommend it to students outside of class.

I haven‘t read this title, but I‘ve enjoyed several others from Victoria/V.E. Schwab!

starting this one tomorrow! so excited!
change of username, coming tomorrow! :)
picki will miss it! it was a really good, romantic story!
everyone knows libby's name, because she is heavier.
jack is friends with everybody. he has prosopagnosia (also known as face blindness). jack and libby change each others lives forever.
i definitely recommend this book, because it taught me, to not judge a person based off their looks, and to always treat others with respect, because you never know what the other person is going through
i've been busy, so i haven't had much time to read!
but, today, was finally one of those days, when i just had a stay at home day, and i really just got to read.
i'm already halfway, and i think i might finish it tomorrow! fingers crossed!
possibly, a book review tomorrow! love ya'll!

A day late, but my favorite hot take for better than the original is the live 10,000 Maniacs cover of Patti Smith's Because the Night. I love Patti Smith, but I think there's something about Natalie Merchant's voice that matches the song so well. The productions of the MTV Unplugged series from the 90s were very well done, and this one is no exception: the whole concert is fantastic.
bailedAbandoning. Was trying the audio and I just can't handle the mispronouncing of Cochlear Implant and the need to slur our Deaf main character's voice when he's encouraged to use it and his family not being willing to learn ASL with him. Just rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe someday I'll get my hands on my book and let my internal reading do the text justice.

1. Nope
2. The tagged book is phenomenal and one of my favorite YA books ever. Yes it‘s about a rugby team at a private school but it also so much more with twists and turns and unexpected depths. It also has one of the greatest covers ever (something I randomly had a conversation with Dan Santat about at a book event 🤷♀️). Love it.
