Fighting words
by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley

This story made me reflect on what it truly means to grow up. It reveals how imperfect adults can leave deep wounds on children, but it also reminds us that hope can still shine through, even in the darkest moments.

Great collection of short stories.

The True True Story of Raja The Gullible

I enjoyed the book. It was funny, sad and memorable all at once. It gave me some perspective about that time in Lebanon (I am of Lebanese background). It also made me smile about the relationship of the Arabic mother and her children (love, food, love, love, love)!

The Penderwicks in Spring

I adore this series, although this book is probably my least favorite of all of them, because the family’s dog, Hound, passed away. It is pretty sad, but there are also a lot of funny parts, and overall this is a really good book!

The Pillowman

Wonderful play. It is hard to imagine how it could even be successfully staged. Very funny, very disturbing, very dark. Keep the children away and enjoy it as an adult.

Great, not as good as The Perfect Marriage

Parachute Kids

I don’t really love graphic novels, but I read this one because it was a Nutmeg Book. The story is really interesting and the characters are relatable, and there are a good amount of both funny and sad parts. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes graphic novels.

This book had a great plot twist at the end! The way all the characters were weaved together was fantastic.

Buckeye

“A small-town novel of epic proportions” (Tom Perrotta) is the best way to summarize this novel. The characters were thoughtful, well-developed, and lovable. I loved the way history was woven in and added to the overall story. A story about love, life, death, and everything in between.

American Fantasy

I loved the idea of this book and the summary, but I struggled to actually get into the story itself. I didn’t feel like I could connect with the characters easily and I don’t really know how likable I really thought they were. I felt like the book kind of dragged a bit, although I really liked the set up of the daily summary starting off cruise each day.
