A Map for Falasteen: A Palestinian Child's Search for Home by Maysa Odeh
If you are looking at a map of the United States, you expect to see each of the 50 states. And sometimes Puerto Rico and Washington DC. You might not see the breakdown of the state you are from, but you know you are there. You see a map of the world and you expect to see the United States there. But … [Read more]

Part fiction and part non-fiction, Witchcraft: A Graphic History: Stories of wise women, healers and magic includes the history of one woman Biddy Early, (perhaps not well-known to today's audience, but one of Ireland's most famous witches). It is told as a story of how she helped her village, but … [Read more]

Especially in my … [Read more]
Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton
This book was published in 1990, when I was a wee girl of 9. I did not read it the year it came out, but I did read it when I was in sixth grade (so maybe 11?). I'm not sure how I picked it up, because I don't think my parents read it. I remember thinking "this would be a great movie" (I also … [Read more]
The Last Labyrinth by Gwendolyn Womack
This sort of novel isn't usually my jam, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. One caveat though - it is (currently) a duology. The ending will not be neat and tidy - you'll have to read the next book, which doesn't come out until mid 2027 (The Last Immortal (The Cosmic Frequency Book 2)). I DID NOT know … [Read more]
