This book isn’t out until September! Normally I don’t post reviews of books until closer to the release date but the publisher is doing a pre-pub tour with this one and I agreed to read it early and share my thoughts. Oh man, I cannot wait to get a finished copy of this one for… Read more »
June TBR School is out soon! You would think I’d get better at blogging in summer (since I have more time off.) However, typically I am terrible at blogging over the summer! I really hope to do better this year. Maybe my monthly TBR pile will help. I’ve been pretty good about getting to most of the… Read more »

My Thoughts: Rick Atkinson’s other YA nonfiction – D-Day: The Invasion of Normandy, 1944 is really popular in my middle school library. When I saw this one offered for review I knew I wanted to give it a try. It fits my “read one nonfiction book a month” goal and now I can talk about it with… Read more »
