pickRead this memoir in verse hoping I can use with my students for their last high school English credit (aged 18-21). Many suffer from anxiety & am looking for that gem that will both interest & help them. Isn't perfect, but think it could make an interesting read for some of them. Worth reading for anyone, not just young people as it has some great insight into anxiety/panic disorders #litsy2017readingchallenge #authormyage #idontwanttobecrazy
pickThree brothers - the eldest, a teenager himself, is the legal guardian of the other two. A rare YA novel, are interracial. It explores the relationships between the brothers and how they deal with the loss of their parents and their relationship to each other when the middle brother returns from juvenile detention. I was really moved by the story. #diversebooks #lrcchallenge #authormyage #mmd #backlistnewfavoriteauthor
My favorite blanket and a new book. 🙌 #LitzyAtoZ #P #LRC16 #AuthorMyAge
pickI enjoyed this way more than I thought I would. I was expecting something in the vein of Fan Girl's Guide to the Galaxy, but it had much more in common with Ghost World. (Really, that just goes to show how little I knew about the creator - going into the book, all I knew was that he's the same age as me). #litsyreadingchallenge #authormyage
