How It Feels to Float
by Helena Fox



book cover


My professor gave me her advance reader's copy on the last day of classes of the semester, but I didn't start reading it until the summer, lying by the pool and finding my mood matched the protagonist's. Fox tells the story a high school upperclassman, Biz, living with mental illness, figuring out her friendships and using photography to piece together the history of her father's suicide. Fox's language is beautiful, and she clearly enjoys crafting specific sounds and images for the reader; it did feel overwrought at times, but in a way I enjoyed reading. Some sentences were worth returning to just for that. Fox drew me into Biz's mind so well that I was totally engrossed and trusting, and I ended up learning plot points at the same rate that Biz did. That said, though the plot does move forward and didn't feel "slow" at all, we do spend a lot of time in Biz's head and in her characterization. Overall, this is a beautiful and artful book whose buildup of mood will stick with me.

Indoor Grilling
by Dwayne Ridgaway



book cover


This book is all about indoor grilling. The recipes have pictures which is a plus. But I find it to be an ordinary cookbook with lots of fried food and fancy presentation. Basically, get a cast iron pan with grill ridges and grill away! I find myself going back to my outdoor grilling cookbooks. It was a cute read and I did enjoy the pictures.

This book was very interesting. I loved how the bus changed shape and went on an adventure in the ocean. I learned a lot.

Dragonbreath #5: No Such Thing as Ghosts
by Ursula Vernon



book cover


The book is really funny and some humor, when big eddy forced them to go in the haunted house and the friends scared big eddy with some old rope they found and big eddy was running away when he heard the sounds. I would recommend this book.

Big Green Egg Cookbook
by Big Green Egg Cookbook



book cover


I am disappointed with this cookbook because it is not for me. I was looking for a backyard grilling cookbook using my Big Green Egg. This isn't it. This cookbook is full of gourmet looking dishes with fancy ingredients. I did manage to find a few recipes that I plan to try. There are pictures of few recipes, most have no pictures. I was hoping that there pictures of most if not all recipes. I need to see the end result as a motivator... I am glad I got the ebook for a fraction of the hardcover price.
