Loved this voicey middle grade about a girl who dreams of being scientist, but is finding middle school to be quite a challenge! So fun and empowering for girls.

The Seventh Wish | Kate Messner

Absolutely beautiful. I hope this book finds the kids who need it, because it deals with real struggles. Ugly struggles, but real, and ones that we do kids no favors by sweeping under the rug. This book is empathetic and fierce and important.

Wow, this book. I want to put this in every teen & adult with bipolar disorder. Such an authentic and hopeful book. This is the realistic portrait of mental health our teens need.

This book is beautiful. Thyme moves across the country so her little brother can be in a cancer drug trial and this story portrays the complexities families face when dealing with illness so well. A gorgeous story that is both challenging and a comfort.

This was such an adorable read. Romantic, funny, and, at the perfect moments, wise and insightful. Kasie West is an instabuy author for me and this one might be a new fave.
