I read a book with a plot related to lightning in 5th grade, so almost five years ago. It stuck with me. It was a good book—like a really good book. The kid liked fishing and his best friend liked turtles. Her name was Genesis, and she had two sets of twin little siblings. Ruth and Rebecca, I think, and then Mark and Matthew? They were M names I think. There was a Ruth. Lightning plots are good.

Nancy Giamatti is so cool! This is also where I learned how to pronounce “née”, I’ve always said “knee”. Thanks, Harry Potter fanfiction. Now I finally know how to pronounce the word I was too lazy to look up in Google.

The cookies were so sweet! And Mrs. Giamatti is such a character. She’s old (but not that old) and she’s nice old. I really liked how the two of them were in the little incubator together. Were they fat babies? Small babies? Did one get piled on top of the other? Were they side by side? One facing one direction and the other facing the other? How much did they weigh? Did they look the same? Did Theo have hair? Is Reef blond? So many questions.

I didn’t notice the lightning strikes or symbols but that is really cool. Harry Potter vibes! And also, weather vibes. 

The chapters in this book just end so well. I imagine flipping the page so fast because I want to know what happens next so badly because that twist was sooo cool! More more more!

Be blessed,
