In January . . .
. . . I got excited about some books.
So excited that I shared 11 upcoming books I’m looking forward to instead of the usual 10.

. . . I asked you to name these books by their LEGO-fied book covers.
I thought #3 was a bit tricky.
. . . I went on a rant about how we need to keep school libraries open.
It’s not quite a Colby vs. A.R. level of ranting, but pretty rant-y for me.
