The Black Coats
This timely page-turner has a strong hook and will not sit on shelves for long. Recommended for all libraries.
Our Year of Maybe
An emotionally resonant and deeply characterized story of love, friendship, and identity in the broadest sense. Recommended for all libraries.
The Second Life of Ava Rivers
Despite its weaknesses, the missing-girl narrative has enduring popularity and its momentum will keep even casual readers turning pages.
Robots vs. Fairies
A fabulous addition to short story collections.—Kristen Rademacher, Marist High School, Chicago
I'll Stay
Slow and introspective with a cast of believably flawed characters, this is recommended for large collections and for teens seeking stories about adult life.
Puddin'
This companion to the very popular Dumplin' introduces more memorable characters for whom readers can't help but cheer. A first purchase.
I Stop Somewhere
While not without merit, the storytelling is much less effective than stronger books addressing the same topic, such as Laurie Halse Anderson's Speak or Courtney Summers's All the Rage. A nonessential purchase for libraries.
The Last To Let Go
A well-crafted and honest look at family issues and a good pick for fans of Sara Zarr and Laurie Halse Anderson. Highly recommended.
