This is now one of my favorite books and definitely one of my favorite nonfiction books. It explains what book banning is, why it’s currently bad and getting worse, and what to do about it. It addresses book banning and explains some of the ridiculous reasons why books have been banned. It is written by authors whose books have been banned. This book is filled with book recommendations and resources. This book also gives tips on how to help stop book banning in your community and explains what the world loses when a book is banned. This book is so amazing and is definitely a must-have in every place in the world. I would recommend this book to everyone who loves and cares about books.

Two boys from very different backgrounds meet at a high school track meet. Neil is from a blue collar Irish family. John is from an elite family. One becomes a high school teacher and the other drops off the grid but they secretly stay in touch until one of them dies.

An amazing filled with lots of laughter and heartfelt moments if you like reading awesome books really try this one!!!!!!!!!!! :)

This is a heart-warming story about a struggling high school teacher who meets two children in need of a caring parent.

This book is a little like Lake Wobegon in some parts and quite dark in other parts.

Thank you to Kathleen Kaufman, Between the Chapters Book Club and Kensington Publishers for an ARC of The Entirely True Story of the Fantastical Mesmerist Nora Grey. I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I knew I had to read this book based on the title alone. And, yes, Nora Grey is fantastic as a character and so much more. I do want to note how much I enjoyed the author's dedication and author notes - both gave me so much info as well as made me laugh. Nora (originally Nairna) and her father Tavish (always goes by Tavish) are fraudsters. Tavish is charming and could sell anyone anything. Nora is not as much as a fraudster but doesn't understand her psychic gifts. She's so used to living on the streets with her father, eating trashed food and feeling starved most of the time. She also feels guilty about tricking people while reading her grandmother's seer cards for them. Nora is discovered by a woman who sees Nora's psychic gifts and the strength of those gifts. She brings Nora -and Tavish, partly - into her home to help Nora hone her skills. Unfortunately, women with psychic gifts were often considered witches and were frowned upon in society during the time of Nora's lifetime. Nora and her father often clash and I found their relationship one of the most intriguing thoroughout the story. She loves her father but is tired of providing for him then feels guilty for not appreciating the little he does for her. There are many characters that were easy to like/dislike that added to Nora's story. I don't give away spoilers. I will say I loved Nora becoming stronger in her gifts and I really loved how serious she was about being honest. The second half of the book finds Nora and Tavish in a new setting which I loved reading about. I was - I hate to use the word mesmerised - by her readings, the settings, the things doctors would do and the people who helped her. There is a dual POV with Nora and Lottie, Tavish's mother thoroughout the book. I also loved Lottie but felt sad for her with most of her story. Wonderful read for anyone who believes - and doesn't believe - in mesmerists, psychics, etc. I loved the ending as well. from my Goodreads account

I think it was really good because I like mystery books and it was very detailed.

Very light-hearted good read. Such a sweet book.

I loved how, even though Aurthor is super strong, he still has to get even stronger if he wants to protect himself and those he loves. This is because on a field trip to a dungeon while in Xyrus academy, he falls into the lower regions coming across one of the 6 strongest people in his continent who was currently dying. This just shows how much more he had to grow if he wanted to stop the Retainer, from another continent, who killed a Lance

I loved it because I love when books have the main character have a disability.
