This captivating story takes place in the near future, over 48 hours. Timely book touching upon abortion, social media, and women’s rights in this coming of age YA thriller.

Of a Feather by Dayna Lorentz
This is a children’s chapter book about a young girl whose family is going through a very difficult time. She goes to live with an aunt who is a falconer and together they find themselves caring for a young owl who is also going through a very difficult time. It hit close to home because the Center For Wildlife recently released a baby owl in my backyard. He had been found on the ground nearby and we knew the parents were still around. We have had so much fun watching the owl family reunite and the parents resume caring for their baby – and we discovered he has a sibling! It’s a fun book and would be a good read-aloud for families.
