I read about Everyone’s a Aliebn When Ur a Aliebn Too in a blog I read where the person said it was their best read of the year. I had never heard of this author so I must be missing some context because I wasn’t crazy about it at all.
I knew I would like The Power of Moments: Why Certain Experiences Have Extraordinary Impact and I wasn’t wrong. Great book that I want to read at least once more for practical steps I want to take.
The Strength Switch: How The New Science of Strength-Based Parenting Can Help Your Child and Your Teen to Flourish was also very practical and I loved it. I love the idea of the perspective shift this book recommends. I will need to read it a few times.
I read Towers Falling for the 5/6th grade Lit Club I teach at my sons’ school. It was about Sept 11, which I lived through in NYC. I didn’t like the book for a multitude of reasons. It was also the first time I read a book and listened to it where the narrator was incredibly awful. Above and beyond bad.
I am now almost done with Autonomous and even though I read all of it, I can’t fully tell you what it’s about. I mean I can but not really. Not sure it was worth all the time.
Here’s to more & better reading this week!

Have you read “All American Boys” yet? It’s a YA and so, so good.
