Posted by Every BAYA meeting starts with a share out about programs and book reviews. Here is a quick list of What We’re Reading from the November 2019 meeting.
- Angel Mage by Garth Nix: Really good, stand alone, with a fetching cover.
- Juliet Takes a Breath by Gabby Rivera: Strong language is repeated through the book, but it is really good and there aren’t a lot of books like it. The story itself is a good one for teen collection.
- Serpent and Dove by Shelby Mahurin: Really good debut novel.
- Lovely War by Julie Berry: Great as an audio book. There are several narrators and good music.
- I Need You To Tell Me Everything by Nathan Langston: A self-published memoir of a person’s sexual abuse. Talks a lot about trauma, how it works, and structural effects of trauma. It is really accessible for readers, free online, and there is a Facebook Group Community about the book. Website: TellEverything.art
- Tricks by Ellen Hopkins: Great backstory to show the journey of how teens have ended up where they are.
