Welcome to the first MG sci fi/fantasy round up of 2024!  I hope we all have a lovely reading year (especially me because last year I read and reviewed less than I have since I started blogging....)

  1. Thanks for sharing the Cybil's finalists. I haven't read as much fantasy this year and haven't read those. And thanks for including my interview with Mary Averline in your line up. I really appreciate it. Happy New Year!
