What the librarian is reading!

Hi US Readers!

Wow, you all are on fire! I'm loving reading all your posts and hearing about what you are reading and doing this summer.  Here are some of the books I've been enjoying recently - check them out at your local branch!

All We Can Do is Wait by Richard Lawson

Five teens meet in a hospital waiting room following a disaster in which their loved ones were involved. As you read more of each backstory, surprise twists are revealed! If you like suspenseful, riveting realistic fiction, this one is for you! A bonus is that it takes place in Boston.








Ghost Boys by Jewell Parker Rhodes

Jerome is dead. He is a ghost, and the only person who can see him is the daughter of the person who shot him. As his story unfolds, so does the story of Emmett Till, a 14-year old boy who was killed in 1955 for the color of his skin. Will Jerome find peace? Will his family get justice?










The Marrow Thieves by Cherie Dimaline

This dystopian book is unlike any other you've read. A teenage boy is near death as he attempts to survive alone in the Canadian wilderness. Then he finds a makeshift "family" of other First Nations people who are also fleeing from the government who would have their bodies harvested for their ability to dream. Super creepy and action-packed!
