  • Bookish Moments: a warm, cozy glow and library lack

  • Current Reads: no children were harmed in the selection of these books

  • Deep Dive: it was a surprise! We are talking about hating a book your friend loves

  • Book Presses: a middle grade March press and another book where scary things happen
