Another library trip. Another stack of delights just waiting to be opened…
You may sense a theme here. Did I only go to the YA section? Maybe. Am I in the mood for teen romance? Apparently. Since I’ve been reading so much space opera lately, maybe my subconscious needed a change. Anyway, here’s the list.
Physical books:
Game Changer by Neal Shusterman — Yes, this one is about a football player, which isn’t normally my jam. But after reading the Arc of a Scythe trilogy by Shusterman, I’d be willing to pick up anything he writes. This one is supposed to be a trip through multiple universes, so I’m excited to see what he does with it.
Girls Save the World in This One by Ash Parsons — Set against the backdrop of a fan convention (it’s a real trend these days!) called ZombieCon, three teenage girls must save the world from a true zombie apocalypse. Yep, I’m in.
Super Fake Love Song by David Yoon — A teen romance where a boy pretends to be in a band to hook a girl who suddenly thinks he’s cool. I enjoyed Yoon’s first book (Frankly in Love) and suspect this one will also be an interesting look at what people do to fit in.
Glimpsed by G.F. Miller — A teen fairy godmother and prom plans. Another teen romance? You know it. 😉
Audiobooks:
The Midnight Library by Matt Haig — Amy just reviewed this one in January, and I’ve been on the wait list for it ever since. It’s finally available!
Cape by Kate Hannigan — This will be my next Middle Grade read with the kids. It’s girl superheroes in an AU during WWII. What’s not to enjoy?
Borders of Infinity (Vorkosigan Saga) by Lois McMaster Bujold — Yep, I’m still working my way through the Vorkosigan Saga series that I reviewed the other week. I took a little break after the sixth book, but now I’m ready to get back to Miles and his many misadventures.
