“Full Count” – baseball biography – my reward for going to watch the xc kids – I was able to raid the North Shelby library of a new book – they don’t lend them when they’re new – so that was nice

“November Project” – got me excited about Boston – also got me excited about some PE activities that could get kids active – and things I could do in the classroom – enjoyed this book more than I thought I would

“Lee Roy Jordan” – biography – story of his Alabama and Cowboy days – good book for talking to my dad about

“Because Internet” – meh, sort of disappointing – heard the author on a podcast – the disappointment is mostly on me b/c i am definitely on the outs with the net – but it was interesting – definitely

so shout out to my fantastic librarian for supplying me with two of these:)

“beneath the citadel” – the cool part of this book was that the author lives in birmingham – interesting dystopian YA – not predictable at all – not sure if we’d put in in our library – but i enjoyed reading it

“we are lost and found” – another Ms. Blount donation to me – was a lot like “Rent” the musical – i really liked this book – again, not a book we’d put in the middle school library – but 1980s NYC – i enjoyed the book

“castor” – another ms. blount donation – another not for middle school – but okay

“Gods of Wood and Stone” – loved this one – from the library – the county library – former sports writer – story about middle aged men finding themselves – lots of Cooperstown stuff in there – so i’m a sucker for that:)

“Mind and Matter” – great book by a former NFL lineman, John Urschel – I enjoyed the math chapters even more than the football – which was suprising

“Dear Evan Hansen” – great book – goes well with the Broadway play – and good story about atonement

“Volume Control” – book on hearing – and what we’re doing to help

“What is a Girl Worth?” sad book on the Michigan State problems from the past few years – sadder still, was the lack of church support the lady had

“Building a Better Runner” – every time I think I’ve read every book on running, another book comes along and surprises me – so that’s cool

“Disney’s Land” – needed this book prior to my trip in Anaheim – still, really enjoyed it – a great read
