![]() ![]() I thoroughly enjoyed book one of this duology, The Song of the Current. As Markos’ efforts to raise support for his campaign to take back his throne continue to stall, Caro is faced with the possibility of losing him for good. Despite having promised Markos she would sail for him, Caro is beginning to feel stuck and unsure of who she is. Whisper of the Tide brings readers back into Caro’s world of gods, rebellions and piracy. With shipwrecks, lost treasure, old and new enemies, dark magic, and devastating romance, Sarah Tolcser weaves another epic story about chasing fate. And Caro will have to decide if her destiny is to sail with the tide, or chart her own course. They must decide which is more important: their love for each other or the fate of Akhaia. But in exchange for an army, Markos must marry the Archon’s daughter. Relief appears on the horizon when a powerful Archon wants to side with Markos in his fight for the throne. ![]() Without military strength he doesn’t have a chance. Markos is in constant danger, and his claim to the Akhaian throne is largely unsupported. ![]() Blurb: Caro and Markos have settled into a routine: Wake, eat breakfast, try to figure out who is going attempt to assassinate Markos today. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The illustration is super fun, super colorful (Bright and vibrant colors of the ocean and who doesn't love the ocean!?) and the book is super simple. Young readers will definitely view the sea differently after reading this and hopefully be able to point out different shapes for different animals that they see! The book also comes with an informative glossary that includes sea facts! it’s a great combination of geometry, science, art and reading. Sea Shapes by Suse Macdonald is an engaging book which allows young readers to identify basic shapes that are then transformed into these beautiful under the sea creatures! (which is great to hold the readers interest.) This allows the young kiddos to see how shapes can be hidden within our environment and how we are always around them! It has a good introduction of all different types of shapes like star = starfish, circle= the eyes of the whale, semicircle= the jellyfish’s head, square, heart, triangle= the shark’s fin, hexagon etc. ![]() ![]() He received his post-secondary education at the University of Chicago, attaining a B.A. He and his sister Tatjana Wood emigrated to the United States in 1948.

From Stonewall Award winner Bill Konigsberg, a remarkable, funny, sexy, heartbreaking story of two teen boys finding each other in New York City at the height of the AIDS epidemic. ![]() ![]() ![]() The layers, of both time and story, are daunting. “Annie Lisle” is not the melody of my own cursed New England boarding school’s song (think more pomp, less circumstance), but the impulse behind the students’ version-the desire of adolescents living far from home in the shadows of primeval forests to scare the hell into one another, and themselves-is intimately familiar to me. Danforth’s first adult novel, Plain Bad Heroines. In other words, it’s an apt tune for the eerie, unofficial anthem of Brookhants, the cursed New England boarding school at the heart of acclaimed writer Emily M. “Annie Lisle” is a saccharine tune that unspools a little like a nursery rhyme being played in hopes of distracting the listener from something unthinkable that’s happening directly behind them.
