Another great verse novel — this one dealing with gun violence and two families having to deal with the repercussions. Slotting this in for #teenread on the #575PMRChallenge which reminded me that I hadn‘t updated my #Booked2020 reads in awhile and I keep forgetting to tag books. 😬 Luckily I remembered to check cause this was a #Newin2020 #Fall read and here is my chart to share some of my other entries!
I'd say the author had a grasp on what it feels like to be the outcast in the "popular" group. The prose was almost like poetry in that it flowed but was not forceful. I only had an issue with the way the whole "secret" was kept from the reader when this was written in first person. Overall, an ok teen angst read. #litsyAtoZ #letterG #teenread #teenfiction #yafiction #grit #matthewlaurence #arc #depression #special
I remember reading this book when I was like 13 and I really loved it, so I tracked down a copy (you'd be surprised at how difficult it was to find one in Tucson) and finished it that same night. Wasn't quite as good as I remembered it but still has an interesting plot and it was relatively entertaining, some of the characters are frustrating though...teen me would probably give it an 8/10...present me gives it a 6/10..#teenread
"They shatter and rebuild, shatter and rebuild, shatter and rebuild until they are old and worn and stooped from the work of it." Somehow this is hopeful to me. #lovethebook #teenread
"She was now a person who had to imagine a body she had known, a face she had loved, buried under boards, while over at the Montrose bird sanctuary, indifferent seagulls and winter birds gathered in the trees, and life continued for most things on earth as it always had."

This isn't a pretty curated picture. Very similar to the state of my house. I stayed in my pajamas and read most of the day. 🙈😐 A decent sequel in the series that I raced through in preparation for my audio version of book 3. #booktober #pajamaday #yeswaycabernet #wineoclock #ya #teenread
"Kissing Mary Carlson is spooning homemade peach ice cream into your mouth on the hottest Georgia day. It is shooting stars and lava. It is every goose bump you ever had in your life built up and exploding all at once." #LoveQuote #TeenRead
