I moved Between Shades of Gray up on my list (still haven't gotten to it yet), and thank you for sharing that point about John Green. Get this - Hubby and I forgot he was supposed to give it to me on Christmas, so it's still out in his truck in the back seat pocket!! Birthday it is... ;) Thanks so much for your voice - Happy reading in 2018!!Joy Kirrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08883167887036480979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941630785664397334.post-2847334237537164082017-12-31T19:51:46.982-06:002017-12-31T19:51:46.982-06:00Great post, Joy!

Between Shades of Gray (not THAT Shades of Grey) or Salt to the Sea? I really enjoyed both of them; they are YA. Also LOVED John Green's new one, Turtles All the Way Down. I haven't read Fredrik Backman's A Man Called Ove, but have read several others and enjoyed them all, Beartown being the one that struck me most. And, finally, you have piqued my interest, I'll have to check out Neal Shusterman's Scythe. Happy New Year!Charlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06296980141888540098noreply@blogger.com
