As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

Foul Lady Fortune by Chloe Gong
I enjoyed the audio book version of this. It's a good story line with the voice actor who brings it to life reading it aloud. It's set in the 1920s and 30s China. There is a lot of back story of what was going on in China at the time. Communism, imperialism and the Japanese occupying China. Then you have two set of spies that are also siblings on oppsite sides of politics. A scientist is involved in randomly killing people with some sort of injection. This book has it all and is an enjoyable read. Rosalind is our star of the book and you will get to love her and the people around her. THe banter between her and her love interest is a fun snappy and playful interaction as it moves from working together to caring for each other. It's a good read. Enjoy.
