It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?
For readers of all ages
It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is a weekly blog hop we host which focuses on sharing what we’re reading. This Kid Lit version of IMWAYR focuses primarily on books marketed for kids and teens, but books for readers of all ages are shared. We love this community and how it offers opportunities to share and recommend books with each other.
The original IMWAYR, with an adult literature focus, was started by Sheila at Book Journeys and is now hosted by Kathryn at The Book Date. The Kid Lit IMWAYR was co-created by Kellee & Jen at Teach Mentor Texts.
We encourage you to write your own post sharing what you’re reading, link up below, leave a comment, and support other IMWAYR bloggers by visiting and commenting on at least three of the other linked blogs.
Happy reading!

I had to see what the hype was all about. I must admit—this book was very well-done. A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas fits in the new romantasy genre (fantasy and romance), but it is much lighter on the romance than Fourth Wing. I thought that the fantasy world-building was magnificent, and I really appreciated the intelligence behind some of the plot maneuvers. I am not typically compelled to read second books (and onward) within a series, but I am tempted with this one.

Love Taylor Jenkins Reid. I’ve enjoyed every book I’ve read by her. Solito is really good. Great choice for a book club.
Just recommended Holes to a customer this past weekend. Classics are classics for a reason.
