This book was refreshing to read and explored the taboo subject of intimacy among teenagers in a way that was comfortable, relatable, and at the same time fun to read about.

SUMMER IN THE CITY
by Alex Aster

book cover


Summer in the City is the perfect summer read. The familiar NYC places made it fun, and page 126 made me lol. Elle, who was raised by a single mother, has her preconceptions about love and money... they don't mix. This read is sweet, funny and steamy.

OMG! This book was filled with unexpected moments. It kept me engaged...I read it in 2 days. There were a few parts that I genuinely was confused with. After going on a few different book review sites, it turns out that most people were confused at the same parts. Otherwise, it was a great book. Can't wait to read sequel...The Perfect Divorce.

THIS BOOK WAS SO CUTE. I love the taylor swift references <33 i love how relatable noah is, especially the desperate, hopeless romantic aspect. drew was absolutely insufferable I was internally yelling at Noah the whole time. but, honestly, I would've done the same thing so. Noah and Devin were amazing together I was waiting for them to kiss the whole time. gorgeous book, I will reread it a million times.

$#@! I F*cking Hate: An Illustrated Look at People and Things That Make Many of Us Angry

book cover


As dumb as it is, the different art styles were actually really engaging in the explaining of the various things that are daily annoyances. Sometimes the more picturesque things that are infuriating look sweet and innocent, but the intense visualizations more accurately show how they might make a person feel. Great online collab.

A Wrinkle in Time: The Graphic Novel
by Madeleine L'Engle

book cover


Kirkus reviewed, "A faithfully adapted graphic novel of the beloved 1962 classic, just in time to celebrate its 50th anniversary...(published in 2012)... With a keen eye, Eisner Award winner Larson (Mercury, 2010) doesn't stray a moment from L'Engle's original text...." (My previous review was erased when I hit the wrong key! Darn fingers!) Now, I have to re-read the original L'Engle novel - which I loved as a child in elementary school. And then there are so many movie versions! (some I hear are very disappointing...) and then...and ....TBD! (The downside of working in a Library/ Candy store? or Bakery?....I used to want to literally EAT poems and books and....reading cover to cover makes the imagery vivid but....)

Guts: A Graphic Novel
by Raina Telgemeier
View in Library Catalog
book cover


I wish I'd read this in my puberty years!! Raina!!! Where were you then? With two brothers and a mom who worked and attended community college, my deep shyness and fear of asking questions as well as sharing my personal concerns isolated me in my family and with my "peers" at school or elsewhere. Ughhhh. Yuk! So glad young pre-pubescent tweens, et al have validating and confidence-giving reading like this one! Ughhhhh....even hiding "used stuff" in the kitchen garbage "indiscreetly" was nerve wracking! (so my brothers wouldn't get "the secret" I was hiding!) And the products we had in the 1970's! So weird! (And my mom was overjoyed for me - "now you can have a baby!" Really? I don't want one now! What would I do with one as a tweenager?)
