Dailies: Charmian Clift, Rumer Godden, tomatoes on toast, weeding, quarter moon …
Thursday 10 September Gosh. It’s Thursday. The week is just burning by and I’m running after it in my slippers, curlers in my hair, hoping to catch up. Who’d think that a person who doesn’t participate in the workforce could still be tethered to the days of week. And yet I am. Somehow Saturday and Sunday always summon a looser feeling in my body, while the weekdays are buttoned up, layered with hopeful little tasks, many of which I will not complete.
Piper at the Gates of Dusk
Susan A I’m the library's director of public services. I like to read historical fiction, teen novels and sci-fi. I love to bake bread and sweet treats and go horseback riding and camping with friends. When I’m not at the library, you can find me hiking at a local metro park or at a concert with my family.

Chronicles of a Lizard Nobody: The Hat of Great Importance, Book 2 Book Review

Parents need to know that The Hat of Great Importance, the second novel in Patrick Ness's Chronicles of a Lizard Nobody series, has main character Zeke, a peach throated monitor lizard feeling a bit uneasy when one of his best friends, Daniel, shows up to school wearing a salmon-colored hat.
CHRONICLES OF A LIZARD NOBODY
Should more chronicles ensue, let us hope they maintain this superior blend of humor and heart. Sometimes, even the calmest monitor lizards have their limits. Though Zeke, Daniel, and Alicia saved their school from their evil avian classmate Pelicarnassus in Chronicles of a Lizard Nobody (2024), the reptilian trio still remain at the bottom of the popularity pecking order. Maybe that’s why Zeke’s so unnerved by Daniel’s choice to wear a pink hat to school.

What We're Reading: Our Fave Fiction + Nonfiction Books
For some reason, January has become my “devour a bunch of books” month every year. And then I proceed to read only a small handful throughout the rest of the year. IDK, maybe I need to store up fabulous stories that I digest for the rest of the year? Regardless, I LOVE it. I wish I could be such a voracious reader for the rest of the months, but alas, I’ll appreciate these winter moments indulging in beautiful tales.
Different for Boys
Ness (Burn) cheekily utilizes fourth wall–breaking meta-humor and redacted curse words, derogatory language, and descriptions of sexual acts to craft an affecting novella that explores sexuality and toxic masculinity. Fifteen-year-old Ant Stevenson and his best friend Charlie Shepton have been “goofing around” sexually.

Different for Boys
Illus. by Tea Bendix. Mar. 2023. 104p. Candlewick/Walker, $18.99 (9781536228892). Grades 9-12. REVIEW. First published January 1, 2023 (Booklist). You’ve surely seen redacted documents, the ones with significant words blacked out. Ness uses this practice in his new, illustrated novella about four boys who have been friends forever: Ant, the narrator; Charlie, his homophobic best friend; Jack, who is gay; and sweet-spirited, soccer-playing Josh.

A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness - a review from another perspective
Share EmailTwitterFacebook Editor’s note: this review follows on from the December 6 review by Tracy Kashi. The reviewers’ experiences are different – one living with cancer, and one who read the book at school, where it is used to showcase issues with bullying. A Monster Calls is a beautifully sad book about dealing with the grief that arises from terminal cancer. I found that the film was just as good.

Mundo em Caos coloca Tom Holland em jornada gamificada de narcisismo

Patrick Ness: ‘Terry Pratchett makes you feel seen and forgiven’
Photograph: Murdo Macleod/The Guardian The book I am currently reading I’m just about finished with Adam Levin’s thousand-page The Instructions, about a 10-year-old boy who thinks he might be the Jewish Messiah. Everyone makes David Foster Wallace comparisons, as if that explains anything, but I’ve found it a vastly entertaining, wildly over-loquacious joy. Then, for something completely different, I’ll be starting Adrian Tchaikovsky’s The Doors of Eden.
