Library Book Haul!

 Good morning my fellow book hoarders,

So the last few weeks at my school have been a little chaotic. The closing of the school year is always full of emotion especially since I won't be returning to that school and did not know until the following day that another school made me a job offer for their school librarian. This is exciting, sad, and a whole lot of scary. As I said full of emotions. 

I need to mention a YouTuber that I have recently discovered. Her channel is Alexandra Roselyn.  Now am in love with her channel. She has a fantastic library that I am lusting over. She does book intros of her TBRs, items that viewers have sent her, and so much more. Highly recommend checking out her channel.

After the recent events that happen in Texas, I found myself going into a depression and guilt from what happened. This is for many reasons because while the events were folding out there I was having a great day at my school. I feel as if this is a normal response for someone that works in education in any capacity. So I found myself at the library a couple days later. Typically when I go to the library I have books that have been placed on reserved and I do a quick scan of their discarded book area. However, on this day I had nothing to pick up so instead, I asked the librarians for some suggestions on their favorite series that is light-hearted and fun to read. 

One of the librarians suggested Terry Pratchett's "The Colour of Magic" This series is an Outerspace fantasy series where a naive tourist called Two-flower meets a drop-out wizard. Where they encounter, monsters, dragons, and knaves. I was told that in this story that there is a flying outer space turtle! I love turtles and am so excited about this because I can not resist turtles. 

The next series I was recommended was Charlie N. Holmberg's "Spellbreaker" this is a series about an orphaned girl with a unique ability to break spells. She gets caught by another wizard and makes a deal with him that ends up changing her life. I am really excited to start this book because it has magic, battles, and a hint of romance from the way the synopsis reads. 

The other books that I discovered are books on gardening because I need some serious help with gardening. I want beautiful gardens where bees and butterflies can gather their nectar but I do not have the know-how to make it happen. I come from a long line of gardeners and farmers. This specific gene apparently skipped me. Maybe I can salvage this with some practice and a good book.

Well, that is all from me today, I will keep everyone up to date on my new school and the library that I have not seen yet.
