This Week: July 20th

This week is all about birthdays! While it’s not quite my birthday, it is in the next few days and I am reading some great books to celebrate! We are reading about a birthday vacation that changes everything, a presidential biography, and a phenomenal book by one of my favorite authors! What are you reading this week?

Here’s the books I’m looking forward to discussing with you this week. Grab your copies of these books by clicking the images below:

RWL Reading Challenge – Week 30: About a Birthday

That Birthday in Barbados

by Inglath Cooper

Posting on Tuesday, July 22nd

This was almost my choice for last week’s prompt – I have always wanted to visit Barbados! This is a great novel about a hardworking CEO who takes a birthday vacation after her life is turned upside down, only for it to be turned upside down one more time. Romance, family drama, and a beautiful setting make this a great read!

Here’s some other great options for this prompt:


William Henry Harrison: Young Tippecanoe

by Howard Peckham

Posting Thursday, July 24th on Instagram

Following our pattern of reading presidential biographies, we are reading about Harrison this week. This book is directed towards younger audiences and would be a great place to start for your students!


Sponsored Read – Week 30

Where the Wildflowers Grow

by Terah Shelton Harris

Posting on Saturday, July 26th

This is my birthday present to myself! I have met this author twice now and have been not-so-patiently-waiting for this book since reading her second book last year! Tackling hard topics with grace and insight that connects readers to her characters, this author will quickly become one of your favorites, too!
