  • Do they hold up? (p.2)

    Hello and happy Sunday. This morning I woke up super early and finished reading a book, which I will review next week. Today, though, you’ll get a list of books I’m planning to read from authors I’ve loved. You can click here to check out the original post and read more about my idea behind…

  • Must Reads for Teens (2/3)

    Hello and happy Sunday. I have to accomplish tasks that I’ve basically been avoiding for weeks. Yes, dear reader, this post is a chore. Today I’ll tell you about five more books that I’ve read and that I think teenagers should read, too. Update: It’s one week later because I really didn’t want to post…

  • My Thoughts on Anne of Green Gables

    Hello and happy Saturday. I woke up early this morning as I do every morning and was determined to finish reading Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery because I’d been reading it for almost two months. I did finish, so yay me, and I also cried, which at this point shouldn’t surprise anyone. Anne…

  • My Thoughts on Jonathan Abernathy You Are Kind

    Hello and happy Monday. Guess what today is. Yes, you guessed it, a holiday. I am also 30 now, which is not as exciing or devastating as society has painted it out to be. I’ve also been advancing in my reading, but I haven’t been feeling like blogging until now, so here we are. Today…

  • My Thoughts on Imperfect Lives (So Far)

    Hello and happy Saturday. It’s that time of the month when I’m impatiently waiting to get paid and will resort to free activities such as reading at home. Before that, though, I wanted to tell you a bit about Imperfect Lives by C.J Washington, which is a novel I was reading until NetGalley removed it…

  • My Thoughts on Nobody Needs to Know

    Hello and happy Sunday. I feel like this weekend has been great reading-wise; I posted some book recommendations yesterday, I finished a book and I started a new one that I’m really enjoying. The book I finished yesterday is an ARC of Pidgeon Pagonis’ memoir, Nobody Needs to Know. I got it via NetGalley in…

  • Must Reads for Teens (1/3)

    Hello and happy Saturday. You have been (willingly or unwillingly) following me and my struggle have my students fall in love with reading by providing them with books that are somewhat relatable to their reality, that have been written by diverse authors and that portray diverse characters, and that are current. I am very close…

  • My Thoughts on Things Fall Apart

    Hello and happy Sunday. Is tomorrow a holiday in your country, too? I am assuming that you and I don’t live in the same country, but oh well. This week I was on break, and I had the ambitious idea of finishing *at least* two books while I was visiting my dad. I almost finished…

  • My Thoughts on Moby-Dick

    Hello and happy Saturday. I finished listening to the audiobook of Moby-Dick by Herman Melville, not because I wanted to, but because my seventh-graders have to read this book and if I’m making them do that, then it’s only fair that I do it myself. I started reading it with my eyes, but I gave…

  • My Thoughts on Rizos

    Hello and happy Sunday. I’m excited to have gotten back on track with my posting, and I’m also excited about today’s review because even though I’m writing in English, the book I read was in Spanish. I’m talking about Rizos, a graphic novel by Claribel A. Ortega. I’d like to thank NetGalley, the author and…
