This book is fantastic and is one that I will be reading aloud to my class at the beginning of the school year. Each story focuses on a child who is being brave by overcoming obstacles. It particularly focuses on navigating and overcoming feelings and challenges. Through these stories the reader can see how each child became resilient. This is such an important message that all children need to hear and see reinforced. I feel that these stories are so important and should definitely be read aloud to all children. This is such a great and important read.

What a quick and fun story! This was just the kind of book I needed in my life but didn’t know it. Aaron Rosenberg hooked me from the first chapter and I was fully invested in Wylie, our friendly Yeti, throughout the entire book. Wylie just wants to live a quiet, modest life in Minnesota, but something odd is going on. He starts having terrifying dreams at the same time that murders begin haunting his town. Being a Yeti, he also draws the attention of a certain Hunter. Wylie has a plan to blend into a large city and along the way finds a community of all supernatural beings. His heart is happy and content, but it seems the Hunter is closing in on him. Will Wylie leave his newly found home to keep everyone safe, or will he create a plan to take the killer down? I really loved this book and will be looking out for more by this author!

Ten Thousand Shells & Counting by Nadija Mujagic is a true story recounting the experiences of a young teenage girl in Sarajevo during wartime in the 90s. I could hardly put this book down once I started reading. This story invoked so many emotions for me. My heart ached so much for all the grief and pain Nadija endured during this time while still just trying to live life as normally as possible. As time goes on, she turns to acting out and taking to adult habits as her morale struggles to shatter under the weight of these confusing and saddening times. If memoirs on war interest you at all, I highly recommend taking this journey with Nadjia.

5 Stars A Spot of Earl Slay (Tea Time Troubles Book 1) by Aubrey Elle
A Spot of Earl Slay is the first book in Tea Time Troubles Series and is the perfect Cozy Mystery to curl up on the couch on a rainy day. I couldn’t put it down once I started reading. This is a new author to me and I must say I like her style of writing and attention to detail. Her characters are real fully developed and relatable plus they make the story come to life. This is about a mother and daughter sleuthing team who move to a new town to start over after a divorce. What they find when they arrive is a body in their storage shed. Let the investigating begin. What will they discover in this small town? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author and this series.

You absolutely can’t go wrong with a historical fiction with a steampunk fairy tale twist, a retelling of Cinderella, set in 1876 Philadelphia. Benjamin Grimm and Eleanor Banneker make the perfect team together. I did enjoy though that the author definitely created some additional obstacles for them, outside of just trying to break the curse. She did an amazing amount of research and you really do feel like you are in that time period with some added magical aspects. This was a wonderful young adult book that readers of all ages will be delighted to enjoy. This was my first novel from this author, but I can’t wait to check out the rest of her books!

This is one of the best books that I have read yet! Let me tell you, as an elementary librarian, I have read a LOT of books. Small Fry is both a heartwarming and relatable for children. Middle school is hard and difficult enough because you are just trying to find yourself and survive all of the changes in your body and becoming a teen. It is even harder for Silas he was born with a growth hormone deficiency which makes him look younger than his actual age, but he also just started a new school. So he has to endure the torture of explaining his condition and unfortunately the bullying that comes with it. Just as Silas is finding his place at school, he is faced with a challenge from Chad the “Popular” kid and the person that is responsible for making Silas’ life difficult. Chad has Mrs. Halliday, a teacher who happens to be his godmother on his side. Will Silas be able to defy the odds and defeat Chad in the school elections?
This book was well written and seems to be very authentic with from the characters to all of the challenges they face. The cover art brings the whole story together and I love the art at the end of each chapter. I love that the back matter has information about both the growth hormone deficiency and Alzheimer’s Disease. I think the only thing I would have loved to see in addition would be some information about cyber bullying since the book touched on it too. Overall, this book was fantastic and I look forward to reading more books by Stephenie Wilson Peterson.

Ten Thousand Shells and Counting: A Heart-wrenching and Riveting War Memoir (Book 1) by Nadija Mujagic is a story about the author and her family living their lives in Sarajevo as it is besieged by war. This story is potent and heart-breaking as it shows how people have to go on with some semblance of life as they navigate death, destruction, and loss all around them. The author takes right along with her as she retells the story of her childhood that was stolen from her by the senseless violence of war. This is an amazing story of survival that everyone should read at least once.

A Spot of Earl Slay by Aubrey Elle is book 1 of the Tea Time Trouble book series. We follow teenager Ella and her mother Naomi as they move to the small town of Fayette. The mother and daughter have moved into a house left to them by Naomi’s uncle, to start over after Naomi’s divorce from Ella’s father. As they get settled in the pair find the dead body of the town busybody in their shed. This was a fun cozy mystery that well…cozy. The neighbors are great and the small town atmosphere is spot on. Watching Naomi deal with the stressors of being newly divorced on top of the murder is very relatable. I also enjoyed reading about Naomi and Ella’s interactions. This was the best cozy mystery that I have read in a while.

I am quite impressed with the first book I’ve read by Julia Goldhirsh! I’m so excited that I picked up their book and cannot wait for the second installment in the Gemstone Massacre Series already. I really appreciate the map in the beginning of the book because I feel that it helps me dive into the world itself. I also LOVE the LGBTQ/gender fluid representation right from the get-go. We start off with a little prologue informing us that they were twelve the first time they killed a man, so definitely diving right into the drama. There is plenty of adventure, different relationships, and magic throughout the whole story. I enjoyed the detail and depth of both the characters and the world. The author did an amazing job bringing everything together to start this series off right. I am excited to see what else Julia brings to life for us!

A Spot of Earl Slay is the first book in the Tea Time Troubles series. This is my first book by this author, and I look forward to reading more in this series. We are introduced to Naomi and Ella Front, who are new to Fayette. Upon their arrival at their new home, they are greeted with more than they expected. After discovering a corpse on their property, they quickly meet their new neighbors, Barbara and Ingrid. As the cozy mystery progresses, we get to meet a lot of quirky characters, learn about the relationships in this small town, and more. I enjoyed the story and the characters. I first got drawn in by the book’s name but quickly enjoyed it more than expected. After reading this book, I look forward to getting the next book in this fun, cozy series.

This book is a fun fantasy story. It is a pretty quick and easy read but was enjoyable to read. It was great to see the character development throughout the book and for me is what this book is all about. I connected with Wylie from the start and enjoyed his journey. This is a new author to me and I think this was a great introduction. I enjoyed the steady pace of the book and the characters to match. This is a thoroughly enjoyable story.

Olivia has had her share of heart break. Garrett left his one true love behind, to follow his musical managing career, and his up and coming band. Now, while both of them fight the second chance for romance. There are still heartbreak feelings. Can the two people work through their delima? Is romance salvageable for them? This was a fast paced romance. It will open many emotions and leave you wanting to read more of this series. This story is a stand-alone but, reading the series only opens your feelings and those we try to avoid. This author is no longer new to me. Her love for rock music is what makes this story fun and easy to follow. I enjoyed reading this story and will be going back to read the others.

A Spot of Earl Slay is Book One in the Tea Time Troubles Series. Naomi has decided that she wants a fresh start after having just divorced her husband. She moves her and her teen daughter, Ella, to the small community of Fayette. Her uncle left Naomi a house after he passed away and she figures that living mortgage free will be a good way for her and her daughter to get back on their feet. Her ex-husband has been less than generous in the divorce proceedings and Naomi needs to find a job and start saving money.
As Naomi and Ella arrive at their new home a fierce storm starts knocking branches off trees and blows open the door on their shed. When the women go to close the shed door, they are horrified to discover a dead body laying inside the shed. While they wait for the police to arrive, they meet the neighbor ladies, Barbara and Ingrid who invite them over for Earl Grey tea and biscuits. Over tea Naomi and Ella learn about the townsfolk and who the deceased person is in their shed. As the women discuss the discovery of the body Naomi and Ella learn it was the town gossip who made a lot of enemies over the years.
Naomi and Ella feel uncomfortable with the idea of staying in their new house so when the neighbors offer for them to stay with them, they decide it is a good idea. As they discuss how hated the deceased person, Yasmin, was they learn that even her own family and friends hated her. Yasmin always had her nose in everyone’s business so it could have been any number of people who murdered her. The list of suspects is long, and the investigation drags on, so the four ladies set out to solve the mystery themselves. As they start digging into the suspect list Naomi has her hands full worrying about if their lives are in danger and fighting with her ex-husband who wants custody of Ella.
The title of this book drew me in immediately and from the first few pages I was invested in the storyline. The author did a great job describing the small-town vibe and how everyone within a small community seems to know everyone else’s business. The characters were beautifully written and relatable. Anyone who has gone through a messy divorce can relate to Naomi and the emotions, stress, and pressure she felt as she tried to do what was best for her daughter, Ella. As if leaving a loveless marriage was not stressful enough, Naomi discovers a murder victim in the shed of her new home. Her new life does not seem to be off to a great start. Naomi was courageous and put on a brave face throughout everything that was thrown at her. Ella helped her mom through things with her wit and humor. As a bonus the neighbors seem nice enough and Naomi and Ella make fast friends with them so that helps the women feel comfortable in their new surroundings. This was a cozy little mystery with action, drama, suspense, intrigue, and danger.

This one was a huge struggle for me. The story seems disjointed at times and filled with displaced random thoughts. I struggled to stay focused and did a lot of skimming as the book moved along. I could not become invested in her life as a result of this. I don’t read a ton of memoirs and maybe thats the problem with my struggle to connect. I expected a timeline and not just randomness.
I did enjoy the last line or so at the end of each chapter. They seemed thought provoking. Chapter 23 was my favorite because it was written with feeling and it evoked feelings in me. The pictures at the end were a nice addition.

Amy’s Rebellion is the first book in the Gemstone Massacre Series. The book starts out fast paced as Amy is fleeing from an assassin that was sent after her by her vengeful leader. She has been on the run from Opal for years, in a desperate attempt to survive and leave her past behind her. While hiding in plain sight she has been trying to harness her magical powers in preparation for the day where she must fight Opal to the death. This day comes sooner than Amy anticipated when her sister is kidnapped, and Amy has no choice but to fight Opal in order to save her sister. Losing is not an option if both Amy and her sister want to survive.
This book was action packed and full of a few twists and turns that I did not see coming. The fantasy world and characters were wonderfully written. Amy has learned to be strong in order to survive the evil forces that dictated her life in the past. She has been trying to leave her past behind her but has always known the day would come when she would no longer be able to hide. The evil forces that dictated her choices were always going to return and she needed to prepare for the inevitable battle against them. Opal is the leader of the evil forces and the one that Amy has been fleeing from after Opal destroyed their entire clan. She has her own reasons for turning evil, which are explained in a prequel book that I intend to read. This book was full of drama, action, adventure, magic, a bit of romance, and the age-old battle of good versus evil.

Cassandra first saw Chandler as a little girl and he left a lasting impression on her so now the little girl has blossomed into a beautiful woman and is auditioning to train at their school…. Her audition leaves Chandler all hot and bothered ….
Chandler has issues of his own and his dad and grandfather seem to haunt him and his recent ex wife is a pain in the rear 😬but his attraction to Cassandra is undeniable and it’s from born doses , they’re both fighting the inevitable though ….
Cassandra is also running from her uncle , her very dangerous uncle , the very same one she helped put behind bars ….she’s also no stranger to loss having lost both her magician parents in a devastating fire
I think the best way to describe this book is artistic with hints of mystery , suspense , romance and sensuality, the ending nearly killed me but I would read this again just to be all bound and wound up 😉

Man oh man!! What a great series so far!! I read the prequel to Riley and Cole’s story (books 1 and 2) first and then followed up with books 1 and 2. Although reading the prequel isn’t needed, it does give a little extra to their story that I am personally glad that I read. I can’t wait to read the rest of the Hidden Valley Elite series!! In book 2 SO, SO much happens! This book sucks you in so quick! I read it in two days because I just couldn’t put it down. Cole hates Riley and her mother. He blames her family for the destruction of his family. If it weren’t for them he’d still have his mom. Riley hates Cole. He’s been freezing her out ever since she came into town. She can’t date anyone, she can’t have friends, and everyone is mean to her. He might want her and her him, but they enemies. Living with each other doesn’t help! But their parents (his dad and her mom) want to get married and they swear everything will be okay, safe, and different. Some secrets are deadly though, and she will do everything she can to keep her secrets away from him! He’s hot on her trail though and she must get away. Their game of cat and mouse will put lives in danger if their not careful and what high schooler is careful? When Riley’s father comes into town, their lives get turned upside down. Again. Will they set aside their differences before someone is killed? Will all their secrets catch up to them? That first kiss seared into them both and now the chips are falling all around. You have to read this series!! It will keep you on your toes and hooked until the very end! Then you will be racing to get the next book and the next after that!

Yeti Leaves Home may be written with supernatural characters, but it is a well written, classic, trying to fit into society book that leaves you wanting more. Wonderfully written, superb dialogue between the cast of characters, and a very realistic and believable story line despite the main characters consisting of a yeti, a banshee, and other not of this world characters.
Wylie’s transformation from a loner to friendship blossoms as the novel unfolds is stellar, and in my opinion, the best part of the book. As a side note, the food they consume in the book makes you salivate for good grub. I am definitely going to check out more books from this author!

I absolutely love reading books that tell a story about the struggles, horror, and what it’s like going through the civil war. Ten Thousand Shells and Counting was a storying being told of a civil war that took place in the late 20th century. The book was beautifully written. The world building and details was amazing in this story. If you love a good book about what it’s like going through a war, I highly recommend this book.

A wonderful book about a middle schooler with Autism. Emerson was born with the ability to talk and all of that disappeared around the age of 15 months which is common with those on the Autism spectrum. She is a fiery teenager with lots to say and no way to share her words, there for she shares them in behaviors which are less then wonderful. Emerson goes through the normal teen life trying to not only manage her non-verbal world but also all of those teenager challenges at the same time. A wonderful read.

Brave Kids: Short Stories to Inspire Our Future World Changers is a wonderful tool for anyone who has young children. These stories are about things that all children face such as learning to sleep in their own bed. This is a book that can apply to children throughout their childhood. I would definitely recommend it to any parent or even education staff.

5 Stars Afflicted Love (Rhythm & Heart Series) by Autumn Sand
Afflicted Love is the first book in Rhythm & Heart Series . This is a Dark Contemporary MM Romance that will pull you in from the beginning and doesn’t let go till the end. I will warn you there is a trigger warning and I recommend reading with caution as there are parts that are hard to read but if you push through it will be worth it. This author is one of my go to authors especially if I’m needing to loose myself for a couple hours in a book. Kyle and Lyle both have dark pasts but the also have some serious chemistry between them. These two had my emotions all over the place and had me on the edge of my seat at times holding my breath waiting to see how it was going to play out. This authors style of writing and attention to detail along with her raw, yet real developed characters make for a epic story that will leave you hanging at the end. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I don’t want to spill to much about this story. I’m patiently waiting for the next book in this series. I look forward to reading many more books by this author.

I really enjoyed this unique story. The author does a really good job of making the story engaging and some parts really had me laughing. At times I felt sorry for Wylie. All he wants he a quiet peaceful life and to settle in but this wasn’t to be.
Wylie is a paranormal being to be exact he is a yeti. All his life he has tried to fit I’m with the humans and live a peaceful life. However all that changes when murders start happening in the little town he calls home. The strange circumstances lead the hunters back on his trail and Wylie becoming the number 1 suspect. Everything in Wylie is telling him to run but the Hunter won’t give up trying to find him Wylie realises the only way to free himself is to find the person committing the murders and clear his name. This is a story about finding your place in the world, finding friendships and learning how special they are and fighting for something you don’t want to lose. This is a really enjoyable story and i look forward to reading more from this author.

Alpha male, MC and Romance This is the first book in the War Brothers MC series and it was good. Really love the way it all played out and how the romance between Reaper and Ava wasn’t forced. I really want to see more of Elena and Axle’s story too. The author is very skilled at weaving an intricate web and hooking the reader in, I felt so vested in their relationship. Looking forward to book 2. Highly recommend.

Fun, engaging read. This urban fantasy was a blast to read. Wyllie, a yeti from Embarrass Minnesota, finds himself having to leave the creature comforts of home to escape a Hunter. He finds himself in the Twin Cities, and a new adventure unfolds. Unfortunately, trouble has a way of following him. This is a well written and thoroughly engaging read. Recommend.

Silas was so relatable to me, I too am extremely small (only 4ft 8) and had an issue with my growth hormones growing up. It warmed my heart how Silas was brought to life on the page. This beautiful, story was obviously written with love and the characters came alive on the page. I would highly recommend this lovely children’s book.

Nadija Mujagic writes an incredible heartwrenching memoir about her tumultuous life as she survives the Bosnian war. The book was well-paced and well-written. It really opened my eyes to the impact the war had on the people. It was an honest portrayal pf the experience of the citizens within Bosnia as neighbors turned against each other and their worlds were torn apart. I would highly recommend this book.
