For romance fans, anything with "Date" in the title would work! ("Dating" might be stretching it.)I'll probably go with Strange Fruit by Lillian Smith.
I'm a judge for a high school reading quiz bowl, so I have to read ten YA books in January and February. One fits here: The Extraordinary Disappointments of Leopold Berry by Ransom Riggs. I like to fit as many of my Readers Rally books into the challenge as possible, so yay!
We're hoping to move house next year, so this seems like a good time to read Home: How To Love It, Live In It, And Find Joy In It from the Sunday Times Bestselling Author by India Knight. This is the cover:
It's a bit difficult to see, but there are dishes of fruit on the table.
I know some people like to mix in some books they can read with their kids. Unsettled by Reem Faruqi is the story of a girl who moves from Karachi, Pakistan to Peachtree City (Atlanta), Georgia. It's all in the form of short poems she keeps in her journal. I read it as a middle school judge in our school district's reading quiz bowl and thoroughly enjoyed it.
There are mangos and a slice of lemon among the items trailing behind her on the cover.
The Mango Tree: A Memoir of Fruit, Florida, and Felony is on my TBR so it is the one I plan on using.
I own sooooooo many books, can’t find one with a fruit! Does this look like fruit on the cover? Bats eat fruit don’t they?

"They do, but I think those are flowers on the cover?
