IMWAYR: A Day Off To Read

IMWAYR is a weekly blog hop with kid lit co-hosts Jennifer from Teach Mentor Texts and Kellee and Ricki from Unleashing Readers. The original IMWAYR, with an adult literature focus, was started by Sheila at Book Journeys and is now hosted by Kathryn at The Book Date. It’s a great way to share what you’re reading and get recommendations from others. We encourage you to write your own post sharing what you’re reading, link up, leave a comment, and support other IMWAYR bloggers by visiting and commenting on at least three of the other linked blogs each week.

It’s President’s Day, and since I don’t really celebrate ALL the presidents, I spent time traveling and reading today. Here’s what I finished since last week: We Are Here, This is a Story, When Things Aren’t Going Right, Go Left, I Am Ruby Bridges, Frozen Peaches, and A First Time for Everything. There are SO MANY excellent titles coming soon. These are all on my list to celebrate!

Up next! More #AuthorFriendsRock sharing with #booksojourn! Thank you!

Physical Book: Half Moon Summer by Elaine Vickers. This one looks intriguing. The two main characters’ chapters are written in alternating prose (Drew) and poetry (Mia).

Libro.fm: Just Jerry: How Drawing Shaped My Life by Jerry Pinkney and narrated by Scott Pinkney and Gloria Pinkney. This one will be special. I’ve always been a fan, but now this book will hold more meaning for lots of us readers, I’m sure.

It’s Monday! What are YOU reading?
