" You're like a grey sky. You're beautiful, even though you don't want to be. "

What a fabulous yet gut wrenching story. #theshapeofthunder by #jasminewarga is the story of 2 girls, 2 best friends whose friendship is torn apart the day the brother of one kills the sister of the other in a school shooting. There is so much more to this story than just that though, but that’s all I’m gonna say. You’ve gotta read it for yourself. #readthisbook #bookstagram #bookgeek #bookworm #booknerd #readersofinstagram #bookish #reading #bibliophile #read #bookaddict #books #bookaholic #audiobooks #bibliotherapy #yabooks #gunviolence #grief https://www.instagram.com/p/CcBb0Yov8tq/?utm_medium=tumblr

If you have read Other Words For Home, then you understand why I am so excited about Jasmine Warga's new release The Shape of Thunder, out May 11, 2021. Middle grade stories are magical and always get me in my feels. Some of my favorite middle grade reads had solid friendships that were put to the test. There is work to be done in this one to mend a friendship that has broken by grief. QOTD: What middle grade friendships have you loved in books? Thanks to @harperkids, @jasminewargabooks and @theshelfstuff for the gifted copy. I am thrilled to discover what this one has in store. ⛈SYNOPSIS⛈ Cora hasn’t spoken to her best friend, Quinn, in a year. Despite living next door to each other, they exist in separate worlds of grief. Cora is still grappling with the death of her beloved sister in a school shooting, and Quinn is carrying the guilt of what her brother did. On the day of Cora’s twelfth birthday, Quinn leaves a box on her doorstep with a note. She has decided that the only way to fix things is to go back in time to the moment before her brother changed all their lives forever—and stop him. In spite of herself, Cora wants to believe. And so the two former friends begin working together to open a wormhole in the fabric of the universe. But as they attempt to unravel the mysteries of time travel to save their siblings, they learn that the magic of their friendship may actually be the key to saving themselves. #TheShapeofThunder #BookFeature #JasmineWarga #HarperKids #books #TheShelfStuff #BookPhotos #gifted #OtherWordsForHome #MiddleGrade #BIPOCBookstagram #BooksOutside #bookworm #bibliophile #friendships #WeLoveMGLit #bookstagram #grief #New Release #bookdragon #reading #booksinverse #booksinnature #bookcollector #HarperInfluencer #hardcover #paperback #outdoors (at Bushwick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP_5-FWrWYz/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sometimes I wonder if my heart is like a black hole -- it's so dense that there's no room for light, but that doesn't mean it can't still suck me in. ~ 📖 My Heart and Other Black Holes - Jasmine Warga . . . #reading #bookquotes #books #igreads #JasmineWarga https://www.instagram.com/p/B1iPWRng6gekE5JV7kdbLEypwMHOlgxxLLYWo00/?igshid=c9rrzj27sw8b

To my surprise, most of the story takes place in Cincinnati. It is nice to see the place where you grew up in the pages of a book, especially in such specific detail.

Back when HERE WE ARE NOW’s cover was first revealed, I wanted so badly to have it printed and hung on my bedroom wall. Eighteen months later and I still feel the same way. ——— Question: What are some of your favorite YA covers? ——— #HereWeAreNow #JasmineWarga #BalzerandBray #HarperCollins #EpicReads #youngadult #book #bookworm #bookish #bibliophile #bookstagram #bookphotography #bookblogger #weneeddiversebooks #flatlay #minimalism #iphonography #iphoneonly #takenoniphone #vsco #vscocam #vscophile
