How It Feels to Float
by Helena Fox




My professor gave me her advance reader's copy on the last day of classes of the semester, but I didn't start reading it until the summer, lying by the pool and finding my mood matched the protagonist's. Fox tells the story a high school upperclassman, Biz, living with mental illness, figuring out her friendships and using photography to piece together the history of her father's suicide. Fox's language is beautiful, and she clearly enjoys crafting specific sounds and images for the reader; it did feel overwrought at times, but in a way I enjoyed reading. Some sentences were worth returning to just for that. Fox drew me into Biz's mind so well that I was totally engrossed and trusting, and I ended up learning plot points at the same rate that Biz did. That said, though the plot does move forward and didn't feel "slow" at all, we do spend a lot of time in Biz's head and in her characterization. Overall, this is a beautiful and artful book whose buildup of mood will stick with me.
How To Instant Pot
by Daniel Shumski




It is a humorously written book about instant pot. But if you are looking for an instant pot recipes book with pictures, this isn't it. The few recipes with pictures are boring. There's definitely better recipes book out there.
What Alice Forgot
by Liane Moriarty




This was a fun, easy to read book. Alice, an almost 40 year old mother with too much on her plate, has an accident at the gym and forgets the last decade of her life. She wakes up and views her current life with fresh eyes, and the problems she thought were such a big deal weren't actually that important. This is a good message to send to readers, as it's often easy to get caught up in the trivial aspects of day to day living and forget to appreciate and enjoy each moment. Overall, I would recommend this book for anyone looking for a good beach read.
Dragonbreath #5: No Such Thing as Ghosts
by Ursula Vernon




The book is really funny and some humor, when big eddy forced them to go in the haunted house and the friends scared big eddy with some old rope they found and big eddy was running away when he heard the sounds. I would recommend this book.
Diary Of A Wimpy Kid Last Straw
by Jeff Kinney




This book is exactly what I have been looking for! I bought all of the books in the set for my little brother, for Christmas, and I couldn't be happier with my find. All of the books were in brand new condition and the prices were unbeatable. I decided I had to get my brother the whole set for Christmas, since they are the only books that he's ever taken an interest in. In fact, not only was he interested in them, he was absolutely enthralled! From start to finish, I think he only put book #1 down to sleep. So, I thought he just has to have the rest of them one, so that he'll keep going. I'm so glad that I found these books.

Warcross
by Marie Lu




I definitely read through this too quickly but I stayed thinking about it for a few days after. It’s a fun and familiar YA scifi genre involving a virtual reality video game that’s become ubiquitous. The main character’s voice was a bit hard to get into at first (maybe it felt too on-the-nose? But upon reflection, maybe that *is* realistic), but then everything started flowing soon after. I saw the twist coming early on, but that didn’t take away from the enjoyment of getting to know the characters as they grew, and Lu took care with creating a diverse set of characters that made everything even more interesting. The battle and coding scenes were really fun to read, and the book calls for a sequel.
Whatever After Dream On

This book teaches you to trust people more, even though the beginning of the book does not go that way
