Wow! Excellent pacing for a graphic novel. All about first loves: love for family, nature, faith, self, and others. I don't want to give much away, but this is really something special

Dolores, Lola, Lo, Dolly, Lolita, how many nicknames can one child have??

Started with print and switched to the audiobook. Fantastic reading by Emma Galvin. The characters are dynamic and flawed in the best way, but Tris...I can only excuse her behavior on the theory that Abnegation is toxic for children. Great debut book, but not for me. Will continue the series though.

maximoffs Book one was my favourite! 8y

Pointe | Brandy Colbert

I read this as a review title and absolutely loved it!! Bought it as soon as it was released. Pointe deals with high schools problems that I feel other novels are afraid to explore. Anxiety-induced eating disorders, manipulative relationships, the whole shebang. Doesn't go the typical YA route. 💯👌

Waking up after send a risky text: "Saturday. I still squirm and emit low moans of remembered embarrassment."
