I’ve been on and off reading “Where the Mountain Meets the Moon” by Grace Lin, but I’m honestly in love with this story and how the author tells the story. I’m so happy young readers have books like this.

[godzilla-reads]

I’m so psyched to have gotten my copy of Grace Lin’s “The Gate, The Girl, and the Dragon”, with the sprayed edges. Yippee!

[godzilla-reads]

Jin is a stone lion, one of the guardians of the Old City Gate who is charged to protect the Sacred Sphere and watch over the humans. After a game of zuqiu, the hits the Sacred Sphere through the Gate and has to go through to the human realm to find it. In his journey he makes unlikely allies with a young girl and a worm who claims to be a dragon.

—The Gate, the Girl, and the Dragon by Grace Lin

Coming out in May 2025 ❤️

I restarted this book because I needed something to lighten my mood a bit. I’m about 100-pages in and Grace Lin is a fabulous storyteller and I really like the style of her writing where the book is layer after layer of stories.

It’s not April yet, but I’m getting a head start on my April Pick for the 2024 Dragon Reading Challenge since it’s a bigger book.

April’s theme is a Middle-Grade Dragon Book. Good luck, fellow wyrms! 🐉

The Girl in the Walls by Meg Eden Kuyatt

Summary:

After a hard school year, V has been sent to her Grandma Jojo's house for the summer in order to get away from it all. But unlike neurodivergent, artistic, sock-collecting V, Jojo is uptight, critical, and obsessed with her spotless house. She doesn't get V at all. V is sure she's doomed to have the worst summer ever.

Then V starts hearing noises from inside the walls of the house...

Knocks, the sounds of a girl crying, and voices echoing in the night.

When V finds a ghostly girl hiding in the walls, they seem to have an immediate connection. This might be V's chance to get back at her perfect grandmother by messing with her just a little bit.

But the buried secrets go much deeper -- and are much more dangerous -- than V even suspects. And they threaten to swallow her and her family whole if she can't find a way to uncover the truth of the girl before it's too late.

Genre: Thriller, Supernatural Fiction

Book Type: Free Verse
