pickStunning illustrations. This story is about the rain and if the sun will ever come back to shine down again. Nice short words throughout for the littles to read and just a beautiful book all around.
pickThis is an example of how different my reading tastes are. The first three Goodreads reviews are two stars, but I loved this book. I was immediately drawn in by the story and characters. I loved the lyrical writing and setting and cried several times. I thought the last reveal appeared too fast, but my heart was taken by this book.
pickThis was another good #audiobook I picked up by chance on Libby. It was a decent mystery that surprised me with it's big reveal. I, however, thought some the story wrap up seemed a bit contrived. All in all, I enjoyed this Ally Condie novel.

Not sure that this book merits the Reese‘s Book Club status. I mean, you only pick 12 books a year and it should be a stand-out. A jawdropper. Different than what you‘ve read before. This is a Scooby Doo episode. Well, without the dog and the villain dressed as a ghost. It wasn‘t bad, but isn‘t one that is a stand out.
