Happy almost-May, readers! Our selection for the month is Crank by Ellen Hopkins. Hopkins‘ books were banned more frequently than any other author‘s in recent years.

Away | Megan E Freeman

Mehso-so

Megan E. Freeman's book Alone is one of my favorite MG reads. I was so excited when I found out she had a companion novel. While Away was a good read, and I couldn't pinpoint anything wrong with it, it just wasn't as good as Alone. I didn't connect with the character as much and found myself a little bored at times.

A beautiful novel in verse that explores themes of identity, self, loss of self, and family. #poetrymatters #novelinverse #nationalpoetrymonth

I found this one in the YA graphic novel section at my library and knew it was an important read. I haven‘t read the novel and this was my first exposure to it. It‘s a story about a young boy‘s struggle after the death of his friend. Many people come to help him in the most difficult decision he‘s ever made.
