Good morning pumpkins!! The other day I found these gems by @jacqueline_woodson in my collection & I figured I’d give them a read since they were only about 100 pages each. • • I didn’t know I could fall in love with characters within 20 pages but she obviously proved WE CAN! I think this was my first Romeo & Juliet retelling & it definitely did not disappoint. (BTW, the flop was REAL in these!!! Iykyk) • • I loved the fact that the story related perfectly to everything we’re going through right now in our world & how eloquently it developed. It wasn’t some regular sappy love story. It’s a story about love, overcoming, hope, loss, grief, acceptance. It was honestly amazing & if you haven’t done so already, make sure to give these a read!!! • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • #ifyoucomesoftly #behindyou #romeoandjuliet #jacquelinewoodson #retellings #romeoandjulietretelling #igreads #bookcollection #bookstoread #library #readingismagic #readingbooks #bookrecs #bookrecommendations #bookstr #bookish #weneeddiversebooks #paperbacklove #floppybooks #bookcommunity #bookoftheday #beautifulbooks #tobereadpile #becauseofreading #totalbooknerd #tbrpile #bookcollector #bookhoarder #mustread #bookishlyengaged (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC3rgtfAtjl/?igshid=cypbmnnd3ruc
