A review for the quite funny nonfiction book Unruly: The Ridiculous History of England’s King and Queens by David Mitchell. I listened to the audiobook, which is narrated by the author and found it very amusing. A must read if you are interested in English history.
A review for the true crime novel, While Idaho Slept by J. Reuben Appelman. This is a well done account of a horrific murder of four young students in a small collegetown.
A review for the nonfiction book, Sticky Notes: Memorable Lessons from Ordinary Moments by Matthew Eicheldinger. This is a wonderful memoir full of hopeful stories about how kids can be kind and compassionate and teach us all how to be better humans.
