Shouting at the Rain

Wait, didn't we read Shouting At The Rain in July?
Lalani of the Distant Sea by Erin Entrada Kelly
All these books are amazing... but for me, OPERATION FROG EFFECT (Operation Frog Effect by Sarah Scheerger) is the only choice. It's about kids rallying together to make a change in the community and is told in 8 different POV's--each nailed perfectly. I'm in awe of the writing. Probably the best MG in the last 10 years.
Other Words for Home by Jasmine Warga? Not sure how to add a write in.
Is this poll going to be reposted without Shouting Out the Rain since we already read this in the summer?

Thank you for pointing it out. If you voted for shouting at the rain, it should clear your vote and you can vote again. Let me know if it doesn't work.
I never vote for books I have already read, but if I did, I would have voted for the excellent A PLACE TO BELONG!
Mary - why don't you vote for books you have already read if you like them? I agree- this is a list to be excited about!!
I participate in this list for the gentle nudge it provides to keep up with the best-reviewed books of the year - and I don't need a push to read books I have already gotten to...I voted for EVENTOWN and will finally get to THE FROG EFFECT, a popular book in my library. (I am always interested in the "favorite" titles of other readers.)
That makes sense! This group has helped me expand my choices too.

What about The Miraculous by Jess Redman? I don’t remember seeing that on the lists?
The Story That Cannot Be Told by J Jasper Kramer was excellent.
So many great choices! Thanks for always offering these options.
Song for a Whale by Lynne Kelly would be a wonderful book to read! Working with individuals with disabilities, I am always inspired by their beautiful hearts and amazing creative ways.

I added this book to my list- none of my local libraries have it yet. Sounds amazing!!
I think Song for a Whale was our June read
I usually vote in the books, but never hear what book was actually chosen. Can someone advise? TY!
