so-soThis is an interesting piece of WWII history, but I was disappointed in the book itself. It seemed to skip over some key aspects of the initial Japanese invasion of the Aleutian Islands. The stories of the different people didn‘t make the impact I expected and felt somewhat disjointed. It may be even harder for young readers without any prior knowledge to follow the course of events.

This summer I had the opportunity to visit the Alaska Aviation Museum in Anchorage, and it includes an exhibit about the Japanese invasion of the Aleutian Islands during WWII. As I walked through it I realized I‘ve had this book in my class library shelf for a few years and never read it myself. I started it today during our seminar reading time.

Just finished Party Games and it was a wild ride! It‘s still the season for cozy and spooky stories and Party Games was just that. Here‘s to reading to calm the mind before starting a new job tomorrow. #fearstreetrelaunch #rlstine #paperback #spooky #cozy #horror #ya #partygames #dontstayuplate #halloweenweek #newjobanxiety
pickThis story includes sea dragons mostly hunted for profit in an area of tropical islands, and their eggs are especially prized for magical properties. There is also some interesting magic with the tattoo like markings of some characters. This description includes nothing of the main characters, but that‘s hard without giving away key details.
📷: I listened today as I worked around the house & started some baking projects.

Finished listening to Legendborn last night. This is the 1st book in the Legendborn Cycle series by Tracy Deonn.
Brilliant reimagination of the classic King Arthur legend through current college secret societies.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Bad news days call for new, used books for the teens on tweens on my street. America's in trouble, but I can share books. #lfl #read #middlegrade #ya
