pickThis is superior YA. Beth, a talented violinist, tries to negotiate her final year of high school while also coping with pressures at home, mental health, an absent father, and her feelings for one of the members of her core friend group. This is a beautifully written book which really captures that moment in time just before everything changes. Excellent.
pickThis was quite slow, but I appreciate the way it shared depression and mental health. It's like you're learning through the character. #ya #contemporary
panUgh, I really thought I would like this one but it fell flat for me. I was bored and really didn‘t like the main characters. At least the cover is beautiful!
Robin at Juilliard, rehearsing for a production of A Midsummer Night‘s Dream.
Why do I feel like he‘s a sort of perpetual Puck (aptly, also named Robin)? I can‘t imagine how amazing it would have been to see him do Shakespeare. It would have been brilliant!!!
