Uh, hi everyone!
Sorry about not posting for *checks watch* literal years. I’ve been reading! I just fell out of the habit of collecting my thoughts on each book and posting them, and the task of resurrecting this blog felt too much, and then it all just snowballed.
But here we are, sheltering in place, and I”m now making videos to recommend books to my students, so I thought, why not post those here, too?
The main function of this blog is still to help me remember what I liked about a book and why I would recommend it to a young reader, so here we go!
First book talk: Stand Up, Yumi Chung! by Jessica Kim. Thank you to libro.fm, Penguin Random House, and Jessica Kim for the advanced listening copy!
