May 2017 #ARCParty
May 2017 #ARCParty// The Teen and Bestie were here last night and we looked through our stack of ARCs that release this month. Each teen took turns reading the back descriptions out loud and they divided them up to see who gets to read what.
They agreed they would share Songs About a Girl (which The Teen began reading last night). The Bestie walked out with The Names They Gave Us after The Teen gushed about it. She also walked out with Four Weeks, Five People and No Good Deed (she liked Kill the Boy Band by the same author). The Teen is all about fantasy so she has Dark Breaks the Dawn on deck next.
