A couple titles

[llyn]

Books:
I
just heard about Theo of Golden by Allen Levi.
I have not read it yet but hear it is excellent and is developing quite a following.
If you have read it, your thoughts?

Another, published ... maybe three years ago, can't quite remember exact year ...is Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt. I can vouch for it. I will have a hard time eating octopus after reading this book.

READ BOTH and agree, two worth the time.

My three girls and I read Remarkably Bright Creatures. Like Llyn, no octopus for us.
A heartfelt moving story.
Theo of Golden is next up for a chilly Massachusetts weekend.

Silly boys!

True story.
My sophomore year in a brand new school and town. Picture an English class where I announced my forthcoming report would be on A SALE OF TWO TITTYS.
Thought I was going to die!
