Day 29 ~ I don't have the time to binge series anymore, as I'm always on the lookout for new books for my students. But when I was a kid, I binged them all the time, especially Narnia.

A8 My most recent reads are the super cool and fun LAST GAMER STANDING by and the luscious, magical YA fantasy, A MAGIC STEEPED IN POISON by (out in March 2022). Both are must reads!

Day 22 ~ It has such great visuals, I'd love to see Witch Hat Aterlier get a film! I think animation is the way to go for this one, since art is the source of magic. Don't ask me about casting, though!

14 The very next book up on my TBR is 's GARLIC AND THE VAMPIRE, and I can't wait. I'm trying not to flip through it too much and spoiler myself but it is just so cool.

Day 12 Don't you love when an author includes a glossary? I learned a lot about sailing in this MG fav by .
Set in Oregon, the changing tides reminded me of hometown CHS.

Day 8: The magical item I want is from The Twelve by — the Coppice Comb! It causes trees to sprout around you, protecting you from danger. (But I want to point out that there are many amazing treasures in this book series.)

A middle-grade book I couldn’t put down. Xan is a memorable character, and the prose is beautiful.

Day 5 - I always wanted to live in The Emerald City (especially as depicted by ). Who doesn't want to hang out with that zany citizenry? But I would also love to live in Koriko from Kiki's Delivery Service by Eiko Kadono.
