I came across this book on a list about books with unreliable narrators. I had just finished Allegedly and had forgotten that I was reading Click’d (which I’ve also finished). Library had both the ebook and the audiobook, and here we are. Do you like books with unreliable narrators? #bookaday Rocks Fall Everyone Dies by … More Rocks Fall Everyone Dies | Sticky Note Reviews
I wasn’t sure I was going to have a Sticky Note Review today because I hadn’t finished anything since last week. Downloading the audio of Allegedly last night was probably a smart move. Today’s Sticky Note Review is for Allegedly by Tiffany D. Jackson. The basic premise of the story: Mary Addison killed a baby … More Allegedly | Sticky Note Reviews
With my school’s book of the month program, we’re trying to be more inclusive of our students who would prefer to read in Spanish. Unfortunately, all of the books we selected in English don’t have Spanish translations. We did find The Julian Chapter from R. J. Palacio’s Wonder in Spanish, and are excited to be … More The Julian Chapter | Sticky Note Reviews

I got lucky enough to find a copy in my digital library and didn’t put it down for two days. Jordan’s a theater student at a private … More Noteworthy | Sticky Note Reviews
First things first: One of my students is currently reading Ghost by Jason Reynolds. This morning, when we were talking about it, she said she wasn’t sure she was going to like it when she started, but she’s really into it now. This makes my reading teacher heart happy. Here’s what I thought. #bookaday Ghost … More Ghost | Sticky Note Reviews

So here is my review for Side Effects May Vary by Julie Murphy. … More Side Effects May Vary | Sticky Note Review
It’s not often that I read books that, overall, I don’t enjoy. That’s how I felt about this one. In the Instagram post is the cover, a Six Word Summary, and then my Sticky Note Review. #SixWordSummary and #StickyNoteReview for The Secret Language of Sisters by Luanne Rice. *** Read this on recommendation from my … More The Secret Language of Sisters | Sticky Note Reviews
Picking up Kwame Alexander’s new book was a no-brainer for me. His other two novels in verse, The Crossover and Booked, are huge hits with my students, especially the ones who are daunted by lots of words on the page. So I went in expecting this to be fabulous. And it was. Here’s my review. … More Solo | Sticky Note Reviews
Happy Thursday. Last week I finished A List of Cages by Robin Roe. Amazing read. Tough read. Worth the read. Before I get to the review, I want to lead with a question I have for you readers: What are the best books that tug at your heartstrings? This book tugged at mine, ripped them apart, … More A List of Cages | Sticky Note Reviews
Title: Dreadnought: Nemesis by April Daniels Released: January 24, 2017 Paperback, 280 pages View on Amazon I picked this up because I saw it on someone else’s blog and thought the premise looked cool.
