The Weight of Blood | Tiffany D. Jackson

I'm posting the #BookScavengerHunt prompts in order & today is 'Blood'.

Oops I missed yesterday's prompt so there will be two posts today. This seems to be a YA retelling of 'Carrie' & the MC is biracial giving it an additional angle.

Typical teen drama girl who is continuously bullied realizes she has telekinesis and destroys the town.
Oh, the damage I could have done in middle school 🐈‍⬛

Liked it, but not loved it. Maybe because the whole Prom Night Date isn't a thing in Switzerland (or at least wasn't when I went to school), so I couldn't really get the hype about it. But Liz is a great character and Leah Johnson wrote her really good. High potential of identification for younger readers. The message this book sends is great and so, so important! Loved the ending.

I am entirely obsessed with this book. Wes is the perfect compliment to Liz and their banter is simply amazing. I genuinely didn‘t this book would live up to the hype I‘d heard about it but it truly truly did.

It was a cute YA read. Definitely had great Rom-Com references. I think it was a little over hyped up. Cute quick read though.

Waylon Russell Brewer is a fat, openly gay boy stuck in the small West Texas town of Clover City. His plan is to bide his time until he can graduate, move to Austin with his twin sister, Clementine, and finally go Full Waylon, so that he can live his Julie-the-hills-are-alive-with-the-sound-of-music-Andrews truth.

As a hardcore sucker for rom-com movies, this hit all the right tropes. I mean notes 😂❤️

This was a powerful story about staying true to yourself & finding friends who support you even when things get tough. It's very YA - I took a few week break after 75% because the angst was high lol. But overall it was a worthwhile read that really digs into the discrimination young queer people of color face among their peers & within their families. It definitely has a Breakfast Club vibe, with an unlikely group of students gathering together.
