Another busy day of packing and cleaning today for me. Today my son and I tackled his room. I'm so happy that he was so willing to "get rid of" so many of his toys. I was getting a little worried about finding room for all of his "stuff" at our new place. 😥 Does anyone have any packing/moving tips for me? ☺️ . Well now, this one sounds pretty interesting and unlike anything I've seen. 💜 Thank you to @booksparks for this copy! ________________________________________________________ 📖Summary: Centered on a community of immigrants who have traded their endangered lives as artists in China and Taiwan for the constant struggle of life at the poverty line in 1990s New York City, Zhang’s collection examines the many ways that family and history can weigh us down and also lift us up. From the young woman coming to terms with her grandmother’s role in the Cultural Revolution to the daughter struggling to understand where her family ends and she begins, to the girl discovering the power of her body to inspire and destroy, these seven stories illuminate the complex and messy inner lives of girls struggling to define themselves. ________________________________________________________ #sourheart #jennyzhang #src2017 #booksparks #bookmail #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booksandbeans #fiction #booknerd

@booksparks included #stealingsnow in their summer boxes! #snowinaugust Here is one of the gorgeous bookstagrams that resulted! Thanks #Repost @hollyslittlebookreviews ・・・ When the final #book for @booksparks #src2017 shows up and you're super jazzed to read it, but super sad that this incredible #readingchallenge is almost over 😫. I discovered SO many incredible #books with #booksparks this summer and this final #read (Stealing Snow by @daniellempaige ) won't disappoint either! . Book blurb: First kisses sometimes wake slumbering princesses, undo spells, and spark happily ever afters. Mine broke Bale. Seventeen-year-old Snow has spent her life locked in Whittaker Psychiatric—but she isn’t crazy. And that’s not the worst of it. Her very first kiss proves anything but innocent…when Bale, her only love, turns violent. Despite Snow knowing that Bale would never truly hurt her, he is taken away—dashing her last hope for any sort of future in the mental ward she calls home. With nowhere else to turn, Snow finds herself drawn to a strange new orderly who whispers secrets in the night about a mysterious past and a kingdom that’s hers for the taking—if only she can find her way past the iron gates to the Tree that has been haunting her dreams. Beyond the Tree lies Algid, a land far away from the real world, frozen by a ruthless king. And there too await the River Witch, a village boy named Kai, the charming thief Jagger, and a prophecy that Snow will save them all. . Have you been reading with #booksparks this summer??

Eeeeep! So excited about the next #SRC2017 pick - #GirlInSnow by @danyakukafka! ❄️ . . It's only fitting to start a chilly thriller on such a hot day in New York 🤓 Here's the synopsis: WHO ARE YOU WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING? When a beloved high schooler named Lucinda Hayes is found murdered, no one in her sleepy Colorado suburb is untouched—not the boy who loved her too much; not the girl who wanted her perfect life; not the officer assigned to investigate her murder. In the aftermath of the tragedy, these three indelible characters—Cameron, Jade, and Russ—must each confront their darkest secrets in an effort to find solace, the truth, or both. In crystalline prose, Danya Kukafka offers a brilliant exploration of identity and of the razor-sharp line between love and obsession, between watching and seeing, between truth and memory. Compulsively readable and powerfully moving, Girl in Snow offers an unforgettable reading experience and introduces a singular new talent in Danya Kukafka. ✨ . . Who's got this one on their radar!? 👋🏼 Follow @booksparks for more great reads this summer!

Absolutely LOVING the cover of the next #SRC2017 feature: #AWorkofArt by @micaylalallyauthor 🎨 . . Synopis: Letting go after her abrupt break-up with Samson is harder than Julene thought it would be, especially since her ex has wasted no time in burying himself in the local dating scene. But during an extended visit to her parents overseas, Julene rediscovers her love of art, and a burgeoning career develops. Samson, on the other hand, after trying valiantly—and unsuccessfully—to forget Julene, has settled instead on his own new career. When Julene returns home to Australia, a coincidental meeting leads to an emotional reunion—but her love and patience will be tested when she finds out just how busy Samson has been in her absence. Yes, they have both made mistakes they can work through and move past—but when a specter from Samson’s past looms, Julene wonders: Can she trust him again? 💭 . . I've been digging this summer's reading list and can't believe how behind I am on actually reading them all ughhhhh 🌞😩 Follow @booksparks for more great books coming to ya this summer!!

Yay for the next #SRC2017 feature: #AmericanFamily by Catherine Marshall Smith! ✨ . . Here's the synopsis: Richard and Michael, both three years sober, have just decided to celebrate their love by moving in together when Richard—driven by the desire to do the right thing for his ten-year-old-daughter, Brady, whom he has never met—impulsively calls his former father-in-law to connect with her. With that phone call, he jeopardizes the one good thing he has—his relationship with Michael—and also threatens the world of the fundamentalist Christian grandparents who love Brady and see her as payback from God for the alcohol-related death of her mother. Unable to reach an agreement, the two parties hire lawyers who have agendas far beyond the interests of the families—and Brady is initially trusted into Richard and Michael’s care. But when the judge learns that the young girl was present when a questionable act took place while in their custody, she returns Brady to her grandparents. Ultimately, it’s not until further tragedy strikes that both families are finally motivated to actually act in the “best interests of the child.” 📖 . .
