MAY

It's been a bit of a tumultuous month - in children's lit and here at home. We spent a week in ICU. Which, unsurprisingly, is not conducive to a lot of reading. My significant other was the patient; I was just the camper in the room. On the road to recovery now, I am trying to catch up on my TBR.

But this is what I read in May, Navigating Night is a beautiful book that relates a beautiful story. It's a strong contender for the Caldecott.  I also loved The Sweater by Larissa Theule. The Marigold Cottages Murder Collective was also enjoyable! Told through multiple POVs. And if you like it, there's a sequel being published soon.
