Part 4 | March 2024 | Monthly Book Wrap Up
In this episode, I am reviewing all of the books that I read in March of 2024 using Yes, No, or Maybe. This is a recent trend on TikTok, and I love reviewing my books in this manner. It's fun and gives both readers and reviewers a quick way to evaluate the books that I have read.
I will be reviewing the books retroactively. I have already completed April, May, and June. I will finally be back on track and will be reviewing July and then August in the active order. I want to make sure that you are able to see what I have read with a short, honest review.
I will still be reviewing some books fully for those of you who are relying on that as well. Be on the lookout for full reviews from the following books: The Paradise Problem by Christina Lauren and Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez.
Have you seen this recent trend of Yes, No or Maybe? Let me know what you think of the review and of the books reviewed in this video. I am so excited to share this with you.
Books reviewed:
The Exposed Series by Naomi Chase
Restricted by Takerra Allen
Finding Me by Viola Davis (Audiobook)
Hold My Girl by Charlene Carr
Commitment (Book 1) by Nia Forrester
I hope that you enjoy this monthly wrap-up and are able to add many of these reads to your ever growing TBR as well. LOLOLOL
Please let me know if you have read any of the books on this list OR if you, too, plan to add any of these to your ever growing TBR list as well.
HAPPY READING!!!

    Any perceptive individual can easily determine that there is virtually no standards enforcement imposed on the kids anymore hence the older they become the further they’ve fallen behind in school. Then also the broken old system has not as yet been replaced by a more individualized and automated system which might have some built in flexibility such as abolishing grades, for instance, like in GED programs for young adults. But to attempt to stick it out once you realize how broken everything now is would be foolish so congratulations on your wise decision to quit.

    TRUST your gut instincts. I wonder if this program actually improves the teaching/learning process. WHY isn't a STATE teacher's license good enough (You spend 4 to 7+ years to EARN it compared to a shorter period of time to earn this "certification")? Is this program backed by any kind of research? I suspect that it is more POLITICS than anything else. If you work in a PUBLIC school, BEHAVIOR challenges and issues unique to PUBLIC schools will interfere with this process. Don't they dangle money over your head to entice you? You've got to know when to hold' em, know when to fold' em. God bless you, sis, and thank you for your service.🤓

      Yes! TIA (Teacher Incentive Allotment), but you must maintain the certification. It is every 5 years instead of 10 now. Everything you’ve said stands true & makes it more difficult. Thank you so much, & I’m glad that I made my decision to fold ‘em.😊
