The Wizards Cookbook
By Aurelia Beaupommier
Skyhorse Publishing, 2016. Informational.

"When witches and wizards aren't busy casting spells, saving the world, or plotting sinister schemes, what do they like to eat? It sparked an investigation..." This question is what inspired the author to research books, movies, television shows, and plays to find sorcerers and create food based on those characters. You'll find some familiar favorites from Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and The Wizard of Oz and others you might not have thought of such as World of Warcraft, Legend of Zelda and Doctor Strange.
This is a fun compilation for fantasy nerds everywhere. Definitely check it out for that upcoming Bilbo Baggins Birthday Party you have every September.

Review: The Factory

By
The Factory By Catherine Egan New York, NY : Scholastic Inc., 2025. Fiction. 306 pages.  Thirteen-year-old Asher Doyle has been invited to join the Factory, a secretive research facility in the desert which ostensibly extracts renewable energy from the electromagnetic fields of its young recruits. But Asher soon realizes something sinister is going on. Kids are getting sick. The adults who run the Factory seem to be keeping secrets. And the extraction process is not only painful and exhausting, but existentially troubling. Asher makes a handful of new friends who help him with an investigation that turns into a resistance, which turns into...a cliffhanger!

Egan weaves in detail about climate crises and social unrest, making the story's dystopian setting feel rich and plausible. With its sophisticated themes and accessible storytelling, I would recomm...
