1) I hated my name growing up. My dad tells me he picked Debra from the actress Debra Paget. I think he said that in an attempt to get me to like it.
2) The tagged book is on my TBR and has Deborah as the MC.

I read this one in February and enjoyed it.
pickThis book is the definition of slow burn. The first part is a series of letters, emails and IMs between Ruby and Aaron who is away on deployment with the Army. I enjoyed this slow ramp up and it was obvious to me when their relationship became more than just penpals. I was so excited for them to finally meet up. Great characters and the plot was so realistic. 4.5⭐️.

pickWhat a story! Historical fiction at its best. I loved the characters. Deborah Samson deserves to be known and understood. As a woman during the Revolutionary War who wanted to serve. Of course, during those days, women had their place-in the home. I love the the way the author wove the truths in this fictional novel.
pickGoing into this book, I didn‘t know what to expect. I didn‘t know much about Krypton, other than the fact it is Superman‘s birthplace. But once I started reading it, I was very intrigued!
I‘ve read many of DC‘s graphic novels for young adults, and this one leans more on the action packed side. It is full of adventure and there is never a dull moment.

#SummerEndReadathon These are my goals for the month on top of finishing my current reads and my stack of audio books in Libby. I know September is technically still summer but to me it is the kick off of autumn.Autumn reading to me has me immersed in stories of school, fairy tales and food. So a few of those had made the list.
