I like that it switched perspectives!

magic realism is a genre i love but also cant seem to grasp! very interesting read, although confused at times, I did enjoy this one! perfect few day read for the beginning of the year. especially after finishing a series. dynamic characters. 2/5!

This was a brutal portrayal of life in the Italian courts in the 1500's when daughters were groomed to be acceptable matches for other high-powered men. The main character is smart and wily but deeply hampered by her circumstances. There is redemption at the end of the book and, after reading, I was very grateful not to live in that era!

This book was really showing the connection between family members. This was a good lesson for children and adults that even if your parents are divorced doesn’t mean they don’t love you.

Love trucks

I liked it because Rocket learned how to read.

I like this book because it's funny.

I like the bears

Riana can't wait to be a big sister. But once Amara is born, things aren't quite how she expected them to be. Amara is cute, but she's also cranky, grouchy baby, and mostly prefers to play by herself. Their relationship doesn't improve much over the years. But when a baby brother enters the picture, and later, when something doesn't seem right between their parents, they realize they must figure out how to get along. There sisters, after all.

My fav book ever
