A partial pile of possibilities for #SummerEndReadathon. All but one of these work for #ShortySeptember, a few will be double dippers with #ReadingtheAmericas2023. This doesn‘t count all the library books I want to get to. September promises to be a busy month.

Apple In the Middle | Dawn Quigley

This was a great story of family and belonging. Eerily, it referenced the author of the book I read just before it: Man‘s search for meaning by Viktor Frankl. The ending caught me off guard. #shortyseptember
