What I'm reading:

Honest June by Tina Wells; Brittney Bond (Illustrator)
ISBN: 9780593378298
Publication Date: 2021-12-28
Middle school is hard--but it's way harder when a fairy godmother puts you under a truth-telling spell! June has always been a people-pleaser, telling harmless little lies to make her friends and family happy. She's convinced being honest about her feelings will only hurt the people she loves! Until, out of nowhere, a secret fairy godmother appears to "bless" her with the ability to only tell the truth! Seriously?! As if June didn't have enough to worry about! Now, June has no choice but to be honest about how she feels. And the truth is: what June feels is stressed out. Middle school is no joke--between field hockey, friend drama, and her parents' high expectations, June feels so overwhelmed that sometimes it's hard to breathe. When everything spirals out of control, will June find freedom in telling the whole truth and nothing but--or is she destined to battle the curse for the rest of her life?
