The Hate U Give

This book really made me think about the issue of police brutality. Because we live in Glastonbury and have a relatively low crime rate. But this book made me think about the consequences and outcomes of this issue.

Mastering The Art Of French Murder

I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. This is the first book in the series An American in Paris. I read the third book the other day and am starting the second book tomorrow. I really loved the third book and loved this one as well. I especially liked learning more about Tabitha's arrival in Paris, her reactions to Paris, her first meeting with Julia, etc. The descriptions of Paris were wonderful - I can easily imagine the cream colored buildings with black railings. Tabitha learns a woman has been found dead in the cellar of Julia's building and proceeds to enter the cellar in hopes of helping to discover what happened. Since her father is a cop and she's always read mystery books, she thinks she may be helpful. The local inspector heartily disagrees with her. I loved their interactions and how clearly Ms. Cambridge describes his facial expressions while dealing with Tabitha. I also loved her Grand-pere and Oncle Rafe as well as the pets. Her lack of cooking skills made me laugh and reading a character that is supposed to be Julia Child was fun as well. I'm excited to read the second book. (from my Goodreads review)

This book was awesome. I won’t write this much this time because I this is the third time that I am writing. It deleted twice, twice!!! But this book is great i only don’t like how the dog doesn’t not understand that teh first owner is dead. I listened to this half of the way to Maine.

Maybe it's because it's in translation, but this book promised some torrid love affairs and all I got were sad people who were too philosophical.

This Book Won't Burn

This book is amazing and talks about the issue of book banning and how one teen fights to end unfair book banning in her town. The protagonist is brave, fierce, and unafraid to stand up for book banning even if it means going against some pretty powerful politicians. This book deserves a 10/10 star rating. I would recommend this book to anyone.
