Frankly in Love by David Yoon

The Sound of Letting Go

The Sound of Letting Go
by Stasia Ward Kehoe

“The Lunar Chronicles just keep getting better and better. Cress is absolutely AMAZING and is my favorite book of the year. I love Meyer’s use of the switching character perspectives each chapter– and really, her fabulous writing (of course).

Memorial Day: Trent Reedy, an Author Who Served
