Hi, I’m Mo.
For our July Spin, I picked Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH. I remember this book from when I was a child! But I didn't remember much of the plot. It was a perfect book to get in the Spin. I vlog all my spin books, so you can see how I picked this one in the playlist below!
I was really surprised by all the sophisticated and hard topics that this book dealt with. I was also shocked at the ending of this book. Some might say it has a very unsatisfactory ending, but I think it left a lot for young readers to think about and imagine!
I also went to a few local spots over the couple of weeks I was reading this book. Greens and Grains is a really good vegan fast food spot by us. I had a burger special that I have to get again before they run out! It was soo good! I also went to the gelato place in town bc I was craving it. I'm an ice cream over gelato person usually, but when the craving hits, it's nice to have a good local shop!
Places:
Greens and Grains - greensandgrains.com/menu
Amici Gelato - I couldn't find a working website!
The rules for TBR Spin are simple! In Jan we pick 12 books and each month one of the two hosts will spin a wheel to help us pick what books to read from our stacks for that month. The wheel has different prompts, no prompts will be repeated, and we don't know in advance what the prompts are! If you're starting this game later in the year just start your stack with the appropriate amount of books (11 for Feb, 10 for March, 9 for April and so on...) and watch the prompt video for that month. Join any time! I vlog all my TBR Spin books and pick the next months book at the end of each vlog.
