Spotlight Friday - July releases 7.07.17


Time to get ready for the weekend!
Kick up your feet and find a good place to read.
Sharing #booklove for your classroom or library.
Spotlighting a book or two because these books deserve the spotlight!

It's that time to share books that are being released this month!  I'm noticing I have some gaps, particularly in nonfiction and young adults.  If you know of any releases I missed, let me know in the comments or on Twitter!
