I would argue that John Green is everything. Thank you introducing us to Henry and helping us understand the history of TB and the need to globally eradicate this disease. With signature John Green voice, this is a fascinating read start to finish. The “Marco Polo” chapter buckled me.

Power up for a 1-Sitting read bc emotional tension and pace will snag you. Compelling bc all male Cs have such emotional depth readers will connect w/ each. Have tissues handy. Great sequel to Orbiting Jupiter. GS is masterful.

Don’t let the jaunty cover fool! It’s a heartbreaker by CW’s own headgear journey in 7th grade. Prepare to cry: bullies, sibling cruelty, poverty, family dysfunction, + alcoholism mixed but =hope, therapy, and relief. 1 Sitting Read. @cwymanbooks

Love it when my Ss are aghast that I haven’t read a particular book. My 1st Tui Sutherland book and I love the voice, pace, & dialogue. They ran to the stacks to slap this in my hands!! 🙌 🥰📚

My awesome Books for Breakfast Ss were shocked to learn I had not read this and dashed to the stacks to get me a copy. One recited the opening letter from memory! They raved about Maureen Johnson’s writer skills! Lucky me! 📚🥰
