Hour 15 - 18

The BBs enjoyed their first readathon.


I finished I'm a Therapist, and My Patient is Going to be the Next School Shooter by Dr. Harper. I really enjoyed it. It's not for everyone. It's really weird but it really worked for me. I started In the Hall with the Knife by Diana Peterfreund and really like it a lot so far. I read for 100 minutes and 83 pages.

My other reading buddy, Benny

I started and finished Diary of a Tokyo Teen by Christine Mari Inzer. It was a really cool look at her trip to Japan after living there as a child. I also started and am well into I'm a Therapist, and My Patient is Going to be the Next School Shooter by Dr. Harper. I'm really enjoying it and can't wait to see how it all turns out.
