Hello! I am a middle-high school librarian in New York. These book entries serve as a reading diary and an easy reference for teachers and students. They are not necessarily new titles, but ones I see my students reading, support the curriculum, or others that merely catch my attention. Please check out the sidebar for more lists. Book summaries are given credit. Comments in the entries are my own. Eleanor Funk Schuster
