Debutants Little White Lies by Jennifer Lynn Barnes



This is a pretty fun book to enjoy.  With a southern feel, a mystery and revenge it's a good story.  The audio book is pretty fun to listen to.  Fine for any library.  Enjoy.

Girls of Paper and Fire by Natasha Ngan

I could not finish this book.  It was not to my tastes.  I really wanted it to work and tried to finish but reading to see if I wanted this in my high school library and I said no and stopped.  The first part of the book is about girls taken from their families to be part of the king's girls to have sex.  The girls are scared and nervous and there are mind games being played along with power games as well.  I would say this is more for adults.  A mature audience. 

Seafire by Natalie C. Parker



I listened to the audio book and enjoyed it.  Fine for high school libraries.  I am looking forward to book two.  I'll be adding this to my high school library.  Enjoy.

Wolf by Wolf Iron by Iron by Ryan Graudin



I like this series and was happy that there are some back stories.  It's a smart novel.  You don't even have to read the rest of the series since it's a stand alone.  It's a good read and fine for high school libraries.  Enjoy.

Beasts Made Of Night by Tochi Onyebuchi


I really liked this strange story.  It's different then traditional western stories.  A different feel to it.  It's going in my high school library.  Enjoy.

#Murdertrending by Gretchen McNeil



I liked this book and it would be very popular at our high school.  I'm a bit concern about all the killing.  I think I will pass on a public high school because of the killing.  It really is a good book and a bit scary.  Reality TV gone bad.

Black Panther the Young Prince by Ronald L Smith



I liked this book.  I think it is fine for any high school and middle school library.  Enjoy.

Dance of Thieves by Mary E Pearson


I hope there is a sequel because this is brilliant.  I can see this being a movie.  I'm getting this for my high school library.  It's perfect!  Enjoy.

I've Been Thinking .... by Maria Shriver

This is a lovely book that would make a lovely gift for someone special.  Enjoy.

The Light Between Worlds by Laura E Weymouth



Think The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis and merge it with Libba Bray's A Great and Terrible Beauty and you get this book.  It's fine for high school students.

American Like Me by America Ferrera and more

This book needs to be in every high school library.  It is so important to hear stories about the people finding themselves and their culture.

A Very Large Expanse of Sea by Tahereh Mafi



I think that this is an important story to add to high school libraries.  It brings in culture and bullying and growing and maturing.  A must read for all.

Love, Life and the List by Kasie West

This is a sweet story that will fit in perfectly for any high school library.

Star Wars The Last Jedi Cobalt Squadron by Elizabeth Wein



This was on sale at my book fair and I ended up listening to the audio book to see what kind of story line it was.  It was good.  I enjoyed it.  Entertaining and space travel while being chased by the Empire.  Of course I am a Stars Wars fan so there you go.  It'll be fine for any school library.  Enjoy.
