Top Reads of November

Here are my top reads of November!

  1. The Song of Us by Kate Fussner
    This was such a beautiful retelling of the story of Orpheus and Eurydice. Olivia and Eden’s home lives are hard, but they can find solace in each other, always. Until Eden begins to make new friends and Olivia accidentally pushes Eden away, the very opposite of what she wanted to do. I loved how the poetry flowed and the way the story unfolded. The prose was written really well and I enjoyed it a lot. I totally recommend it to you!
  2. Dear Mothman by Robin Gow
    This was such an interesting book! Noah and Lewis used to be best friends. But when Lewis dies in a car accident, Noah is forced to survive alone. He decides to do his science project on Mothman to honor Lewis’ legacy, but when his teachers and his parents start to doubt him, he knows he needs real evidence. I really enjoyed this book and the portrayal or LGBT+ characters. It was a great read!
  3. Dear Medusa by Olivia Cole
    I really loved how powerful this book was. Alicia has gotten used to being bullied, being an outcast, her only friend one she made in detention. But when she gets to meet with a mentor, she learned just how to channel that anger out and how to become the most powerful version of herself. I really enjoyed the writing style of this book and how well sexual abuse is shown. This is an amazing book!
  4. The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake
    The way this story was built was so cool! Every so often, 6 medians from around the world are chosen to be apart of the elite Alexandrian Society. The catch? Only 5 of them can actually be initiated. I loved the world building and how we got to see each of their powers grow as they accepted their role. I also enjoyed watching them progress past the tests. It was a really great book!
  5. Lore Olympus (vol. 1) by Rachel Smythe
    I’ve been following the Webtoon for a while, but it was nice to have a physical copy of the book and to be able to flip through its pages. Persephone’s mother, Demeter, is incredibly overprotective, but she eventually lets Persephone live with her friend, Artemis. However, at a party, Persephone catches Hades’ eye and it’s never a good idea when you get noticed by one of the Big 3…
    This was such a great book and I really enjoyed it. I cant wait to read the rest!
