The Final Round!!!

Smackdown the Tenth - Final Round

Debbie, Vanessa, Norma
 

Vanessa: Well this is finally a real showdown!  I genuinely enjoyed all three of these books and am happy to see them in the finals.  I chose Moonrise over Patron Saint in the previous round so it is still my pick of the two but with Mason Buttle in the race, it’s game on.  I read Mason Buttle when it first came out in 2018 and felt such a love for Mason and his quirkiness.  And then I realized he also had a huge heart.  It has stuck with me everyday since and was a 5 star book.  So even though the battle is strong, the truth is...Mason Buttle is my pick!

Norma: I loved all three of these books.  I chose Moonrise in the last round and so it is still fresh in my mind.  My battle is between Moonrise and Mason Buttlw which I also chose to move on early in the game.  Though I wouldn’t be disappointed if either was the champ, I am choosing Mason Buttle as the winner because the story stayed with me throughout

Debbie:I loved Moonrise but the question of which one of these books wins for me is an easy one. “The Truth As Told By Mason Buttle” is my favorite. Hands down. Love, love, loved it
