pickThis book had me bawling! This is a middle grade novel from Ellen Hopkins but I will always read anything she writes. She is one of my absolute favorite authors of verse novels. Somehow this one slipped through the cracks because I thought I had read all of her books so I‘m glad I was able to read it. Just an absolute masterpiece just like all of her others.
pickNovel-in-verse about a single dad and his 2 sons who have a lot of heartbreak 💔 ❤️🩹. Mom is touring with her band, Dad is rarely home, the 17 yo has a TBI from a football injury and is mean to his 12 yo brother. A great cast of characters who still have hope…

pickThis was very seriously difficult to put down (but I had finished my breakfast and HAD to leave the diner). So I kept reading as soon as I got home. And, boy. This is a excellent MG novel in verse from the perspective of a 12 yo boy who feels a little invisible but also responsible for his older brother who is needing help and attention that single dad isn‘t providing. The lesson here is that sometimes you need to tell secrets to help others.
pickThis is a heartfelt novel in verse about what it looks like when a 12 year old feels responsible for his older brother and abandoned by his mother. Heartbreaking and hopeful in turns.
