Finished this for my #QUABC 40-Book Challenge prompt: “A National Book Award winner.” It was the 2023 Winner for Young People & it was delightful. I think everyone can relate to the trauma/drama of middle school & Sanat captures it in all its glory in his illustrations & text. Set mainly on a life-changing school trip to Europe, I enjoyed reading it while listening to the Spotify “mix tape” playlist he includes the QR code for.💙

“Of all that we're asked to give others in this life, the most difficult to offer may be forgiveness.”

This was such a wonderful and heart-warming asexual/aromatic coming of age story. The characters and relationships were really well done and interesting. There was exploration of what being in a relationship meant, what love meant, and that platonic relationships can be just as valid as romantic and sexual ones.

The art style was great and I really enjoyed reading it.

Thanks to #Netgalley for the #ARC of the book

I finally read this and of course I loved it, just like I have loved all the Elena Ferrante books I've read.

Just not feelin' this one #HailTheBail

I can‘t reach it right now, but I have a 1943 copy of my favorite book, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith.

Up next 🤓

I wasn‘t ready for the many tears to form in my eyes while reading this. Beautifully heartbreaking, and I believe this is the authors debut novel. I‘ll be looking for more of her in the future.
This was my April #bookspin for this month 🌸

Someone‘s had an exhausting day 🙃 Everyone is in bed, now mama can get some reading time in 📚
