It’s very intense, and so well done. A fantastic duology.

I felt the same way! This book felt more intense, with Max in Germany and surrounded by Nazis. And yes, the similarities made me want to weep.

I’ve read many WWII books, but this one is outstandingly unique. The storytelling is superb, and its heart shines through. Brilliant, compelling, suspenseful, heartbreaking, and very VERY timely. Well done, @adamgidwitz.bsky.social

The devastation from wildfires can be hard to fathom. These books can help young people process what's happening.

📙They Hold the Line: Wildfires, Wildlands, and the Firefighters Who Brave Them
📗What to Bring
📘I Am the Storm
📕Wildfire!

Thoughts with those on the front lines fighting to save.🙏🏻

May I also suggest Simone by Viet Thanh Nguyen & Minnie Phan
It beautifully ties together a child’s evacuation from a wildfire and her mother’s escape from a flood as a child in Viet Nam.

A5. Loved @janetsumnerjohnson.bsky.social 's Fault Lines, #2 in the Winterton Deception series. A puzzle-y, family, twisty mystery set during Thanksgiving. #TLSkyChat
