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!
Happy September 1st! It's the first Friday of the month which means it's a roundup of releases! Do you remember my August post? It was seriously dangerous for your pocket book. Goes what? This month is worse! Get your library holds ready!
