It's Monday! What are you reading? Is a wonderful community of readers, teachers, and librarians. Hosted by Jen over at Teach Mentor Texts along with Kellee and Ricki at Unleashing Readers, participants share their reading adventures from the past week along with their reading plans for the week ahead. My Monday posts are generally just a highlight of what I've been reading during the week so if you'd like to see all that I've been reading, follow my Goodreads page. Books I recently read and enjoyed: Love That Story: Observations from a Gorgeously Queer Life by Jonathan Van Ness In the follow up to his memoir, Over the Top, Jonathan Van Ness brings a side of depth and social justice to his sunny disposition in this series of intersectional essays. Come Fly the World: The Jet-Age Story of the Women of Pan Am by Julia Cooke
Forever Home by Henry Cole A young boy wants a dog so badly that to prove to his dads that he can be responsible, he walks an empty leash every day.

Books Aren't For Eating has a great title and cover. Sounds like a nice message, too.
ReplyDeleteEverything in Its Place sounds like I would love it! Added to my list! I heard we missed you getting to South Bend this week. Darn! Let's plan something soon. Are you going to NCTE?
