Hello there! If you are interested in participating, please comment the genres you are looking to read! If you have a specific book you were hoping to read, you can add that too!


message 2: by Lisa (new)

Lisa (lizaland) Hi! I'm finally getting out of my fantasy slump so I'm really excited about getting back into some heavy books.
Some of my choices are An Ember in the Ashes or Renegades or Truthwitch.
I'm also open to other fantasy suggestions!


message 3: by Dalia (new)

Dalia | 20 comments Hi! I will read any YA book, but I have been looking at books such as My Plain Jane, Sadie, Every Stolen Breath, Turtles All the Way Down, Everything, Everything, The 5th Wave, and Furyborn. That’s probably a lot to take in but I enjoy YA Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Dystopian, Historical Fiction, and Contemporary.
