I'm typing this inside the Library. Things have changed rapidly in a few days. We are officially welcoming Ms. Fanelli, Mr. Fallon, and Mr. Pistone as roommates! The QR codes are made for sign-in to be touchless. A new video of the space will be made once we get ourselves settled. It will be different to say the least!
So on to today's review. I was in a conference session with Ben Philippe this summer on comedy in YA. This was the same session I heard about Midnight and Rayne. I had HOPED this would be more amusing.
Unfortunately I did not find this to be all that funny. I smiled a few times, but I was definitely not rolling around laughing. I don't like to "genderify" books, but this is definitely a boy-ish book. And maybe because I'm a cis-gendered female, I just couldn't get into it. I've been teaching teenage boys 19 years, and I am a Mom to one. Maybe that's enough locker room smell for one lady.
I won't be recording this review as it just dawned on me our school desktops do not have webcams! And I'm far back in the line for a new laptop. Alas...
I'll be adding this to the collection early next week along with all the other new books.
