Sunday we celebrated Easter and the day got away from me, so I’m sorry to miss out on today’s IMWAYR. I’ll update next week!

Happy reading this week! 🎉

To see what I’ve been up to, check out my 2021 Goodreads Challenge page or my read bookshelf on Goodreads.

I finished reading Darius the Great is Not Okay by Adib Khorram. I really loved this book and am glad that it has been used in so many classrooms. It offers a complex view of mental health, and I find myself pausing in the day, remembering the text, and pondering aspects of it. I suspect most readers have gotten to this one, but if you haven’t (it was published in 2018), I recommend it highly.

  1. Loved Sporting Chance and will look forward to your post. Don’t you hate it when real life gets in the way of the blog? Glad you both have some books that you have enjoyed.

  2. I’m so glad you loved Darius the Great is Not Okay. It is such a quiet yet impactful book. I haven’t read Furia yet but I loved Mendez’s picture book Where Are you From (which is only $1.99 on Kindle right now).

  3. I hope you both had a happy Easter! I still haven’t read Darius the Great is Not Okay, and it sounds like one I need to pick up. I’ve also seen a lot about Furia but haven’t read it—I must be pretty behind on my YA reading! Thank you both for the great post and round-up!

  4. Darius the Great is Not Okay is on my list. Thanks for the reminder about it. I tried to get into Furia twice, but it just didn’t work for me. It added to my already existing covid anxiety. I hope to get back to it some day.
