I told a friend I was already excited to read your take … at least I predicted that!

Granted I am a children’s librarian, but it took me far too long to have read any of the books. I skewed to the older titles. I have read both graphic novels as well as the only poetry collection, which did not surprise me. I wanted more nonfiction on there … I was upset about the exclusion of Clint Smith’s “How the Word is Passed.”

The best part of it was that my friend and I were able to look together, talk about how little of this list we had read, but also share titles the other person needs to read … which I guess is the social engagement piece on a personal level!
