May Books

 

21. Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption, Stephen King

22. Ghost, Jason Reynolds

23. Look Both Ways, Jason Reynolds

It was a quiet month for reading.  It's always a busy month with birthdays and spring sports and I am absolutely overwhelmed at work right now. I am obsessed with the movie Shawshank Redemption so I was excited to read the actual novella.  I have to admit, it may be one of the only times the movie was better than what I read.

I really loved Ghost but didn't really care for Look Both Ways.  I had a hard time keeping track of all the characters and understanding how they were connected.

I grabbed a bunch of new books and with summer coming, I have high hopes for lots of new books! 

We Tried Baseball!

 Growing up, I was a baseball sister. Both my brothers played and I have so many wonderful memories of cheering them on from the sidelines.  I've literally been waiting for Tyler to play ball. As luck would have it, he doesn't love it and he only wants to play soccer. Honestly, I think baseball is too slow for him, but it was fun while it lasted!
