Totally Youthful Tuesday

It’s 1793. Mattie is sixteen. She and her family live in Philadelphia above their coffee shop. She has a regular sort of life for that time. Then, Yellow Fever hits and everything changes in such big and little ways for her. From losing friends to not being able to stay in Philly even, she has to figure out who she is and how to survive as Yellow Fever seems like it’s going to destroy everything.

People know YA Historical fiction like, My Brother Sam is Dead, Number the Stars, or The Book Thief. But, honestly, this book is even better than those (and I really loved Number the Stars as a kid). There’s a bunch of history (since there was a Yellow Fever epidemic around 1793), but, it’s all seen through the fiction Mattie and so it’s not dry or history like at all. Like a bit of ground up broccoli snuck in some sort of Chocolate dessert. A great read.

You may like this book If you Liked: A Cloud of Outrageous Blue by Vesper Stamper, The Goodbye Season by Marian Hale, or An American Plague by Jim Murphy

New Releases for October for the YA World Challenge

It’s time for the big New Releases dump for October! Keep in mind this includes Middle Grade books and a couple NA. Favorite covers this month? I think If You Could See the Sun is beautiful. I’m also loving Sparrows in the Wind, and Crown of Flames is unapologetically COLOR.

I’m honestly not sure I could decide on most anticipated as these are all interesting in their own way. LGBT historical Nothing Sung and Nothing Spoken catches my interest, and Mwikali and the Forbidden Mask is exciting because I haven’t seen much for Kenya. Which are you looking forward to?

Reading Roundup: August 2020

Favourite > Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: Naoko Takeuchi - I grew up watching the American version of Sailor Moon on TV and fell in love. Now that I’m (much) older I am revisiting the icon with the English manga and I still laugh at her sass.

Least Favourite > Always and Forever, Lara Jean - This was definitely better than the second book! But I remain firm on my stance that the first book should have been a standalone. In the conclusion to the trilogy Lara Jean struggles with the end of high school and new beginnings with her signature innocence.

November didn't start as good as I hoped #weeklywrapup

November didn’t start as good as I hoped #weeklywrapup

Hello readers! I hope you all are well and had a great week. My week hasn’t been bad but it feels like life keeps getting in the way more lately. Some things and some people makes me feel mentally drained but there isn’t much I can do about it than make sure I have my ‘me time’ to take care of myself. But the book I picked at the beginning of November didn’t help with it. So my November didn’t…

(Knopf, 8/25/20)

Add to Goodreads

Purchase from Indiebound

For fans of Fever 1793 comes the story of a young woman paving her own path and falling in love during the Great Plague of 1348, from the award-winning creator of What the Night Sings . Edyth grew up in a quiet village with a loving family, before losing everything she holds dear in the blink of an eye. Suddenly sent to live in a priory and work with ancient texts, Edyth must come to terms with her new life and the gifts she discovers in herself. But outside the priory, something much worse is coming. With the reappearance of a boy from her past and the ominous Great Plague creeping closer and closer to the priory, it will be up to Edyth to rise above it all and save herself.

Is there a good book series or TV show series on Netflix you would reccomend? I need some recs please. You also reccomdended a book about a hacker a while back but I forgot about the name. Could u please lmk which one it was? Also I've just watched the sandman and it was so good. Highly reccomend. Corinthian and Death were both so fine, the entire cast was also fine as hell I must say. The acting was fantastic. 😌✨

Thank you for the rec, I'll definitely check it out!! As for your question:

i dont watch any tv so I don't have any series recs, but for book recs:

the Phantom Wheel (the hacker book!!)

What the Night Sings & A Cloud of Outrageous Blue (both by the author Vesper Stamper) - they are gorgeous books. Like you know how ome books are good, but have ugly covers, and just seem a bit cringe? These books are incrdible, and the graphics are amazing. A good mesh of pictures that paint a really beautiful picture for the story.

Dear Martin by Nic Stone - it's a political book, written about police brutality and it's impact on the African American community. It was such a good read. I highly recommend it.

Operation Red Jericho - Holy shit what a book. I actually found it in one of those little libraries-- I am still unable to find it in any library, and I sob for the fact I might never be able to get my hands on the rest of the books in the series. But if you can buy it, I cannot recommend enough to do it. The physical copy will make you weep. The DIAGRAMS. The pull out maps!! The sketches, croquis, confidential material-- everything about this book is incredible!! It's not just a good book, it's a piece of art!!

i think that's a pretty good list to start. let me know if you want any more!!
