I Am Thunder | 
We‘re right in the middle of fourth winter here in Michigan. 👀 But look what came in the mail yesterday! You‘ll remember #iamthunder as a recommendation from our interview with Claire Handscombe of Brit Lit Podcast on episode 18.5. I just had to try out Book Depository to get my hands on this British book!
🎉📚New Episode! 📚🎉
We hear from @mkhanauthor about the inspiration for his excellent novel I AM THUNDER, his transition from teacher to writer, his reading habits and preferences, and more. #ukya #britlit

pickIf you are not a teen, and a London teen at that, you may find some of the language used in "I am Thunder" a bit tricky to grasp. But underneath all the 'rude boyz' and throwing shade is a tale about a girl who is torn between family, culture, country, love, friendship and faith. A very accessible read about just how easy it can be to forget your own morality in the quest for acceptance. Brave and scary in equal parts.
UKYA is starting 2018 strong. Hoping that now that UK Netgalley exists I'll be able to get my hands on some ARCs!
