Then she meets Lincoln, a charismatic, one-armed skater who challenges her to swap her surfboard for a skateboard. Because sometimes the only way to find your footing is to let go. 🌼 QOTD: What summery books are you planning on reading this summer? 🌼

Happy book birthday to @ljsilverman1 and Girl Out Of Water!! . . I'm currently in the middle of reading this and it's too cute. 💕🌊🏄🏼‍♀️ I've already got a page full of thoughts down for my review 🙈😭👀 . . If you're a fan of To All The Boys, I think you'll definitely enjoy this one as well! Also this reminds me of The Education of Margot Sanchez 🙌🏼 . . . . . . #LauraSilverman #GirlOutOfWater #becauseofreading #bibliophile #book #bookaddict #bookaholic #bookish #booklove #booklover #booklovers #booknerd #booknerdigans #bookphotography #bookporn #books #bookstagram #bookworm #epicreads #fiercereads #goodreads #igbooks #ilovebooks #instabook #instabooks #ireadya

Awesome #bookmail!! I received this beauty last week and it sounds amazing! Sounds like the perfect spring/summer read! ☀️🏖 What do you guys think? 🤗 GIRL OUT OF WATER releases May 2nd! Thank you to @sourcebooksfire for sending me this copy! 💕 . 💙Posting blue to support the message of Kindness today! #booksNOTbullies 💙 ______________________________________________________ 📖Synopsis: Anise Sawyer plans to spend every minute of summer with her friends: surfing, chowing down on fish tacos drizzled with wasabi balsamic vinegar, and throwing bonfires that blaze until dawn. But when a serious car wreck leaves her aunt, a single mother of three, with two broken legs, it forces Anise to say goodbye for the first time to Santa Cruz, the waves, her friends, and even a kindling romance, and fly with her dad to Nebraska for the entire summer. Living in Nebraska isn’t easy. Anise spends her days caring for her three younger cousins in the childhood home of her runaway mom, a wild figure who’s been flickering in and out of her life since birth, appearing for weeks at a time and then disappearing again for months, or even years, without a word. . Complicating matters is Lincoln, a one-armed, charismatic skater who pushes Anise to trade her surfboard for a skateboard. As Anise draws closer to Lincoln and takes on the full burden and joy of her cousins, she loses touch with her friends back home – leading her to one terrifying question: will she turn out just like her mom and spend her life leaving behind the ones she loves. . Expected publication: May 2nd 2017 by Sourcebooks Fire ______________________________________________________ #girloutofwater #sourcebooks #getbooklit #laurasilverman

QUESTION: What is something you must absolutely have while reading? . . I really love to have my mini notebook to jot down my thoughts for review. And sometimes a candle to burn 🙌🏼 . . Yesterday I started A Crown Of Wishes from the beginning and it's SO DAMN GOOD!! As much as I hate to say this, I think it's even better than The Star Touched Queen. 🙊🙈✨ Though that book will always be special in my heart 👌🏼 And you should still read it!! . . Should I tone it down with this dust filter? I kind of want to fade it a little bit 🤔🤔 . . #laurasilverman #girloutofwater

This photo seems quite fitting next to my mermaid tale photo ✌🏼🙌🏼😆🌊🐳💙🏄🏽‍♀️ . . I was so happy that @sourcebooksfire kindly sent me an arc of Girl Out of Water!! It's one of the few contemporaries I'm dying to read this year 😭🙊🙉😍 . . Here's the summary: .

✨Blog Tour✨ Up All Night I’m not a real big short story fan, but I chose this collection of short stories because Tiffany Jackson (@writeinbk) wrote a short story in this anthology of YA short stories. If you haven’t read Tiffany Jackson, then drop what you are doing and READ HER WORK! Matter of fact, skip all the stories until you get to hers, and then read them from the beginning. Anyways, all of these stories take place between sunset and sunrise, which is a very cool idea, and some of these stories have some type of suspense or thriller-esque qualities to them. I think the ’13’ stories alludes to some sort of suspense/thriller/horror may be happening in these pages. These short stories were very inclusive, thoughtful, and cute! I really enjoyed reading the majority of the stories, and I could picture myself as a teenager, enjoying these as well. There were a couple of stories that I didn’t think fit into the anthology, but overall, they held my interest for the most part, and I would recommend this collection to YA readers who want something a little different. I really enjoyed the inclusivity of all the stories. There is someone from every walk of life in these stories, and I really appreciated that aspect. We need to see everyone as human and as real as possible, and many of the characters imagined in these stories felt really real and relatable. It makes you take a pause and consider humanity and how we all have struggles. We all want to be loved. We all want to fit. We all want a place to be us. We all want to be accepted. We all want to be understood. We all want to just be. I was kind of prepared for just thriller type ghost stories, but I’m glad they weren’t all like that. There was a wide variety and diverse mix of stories, and overall a pretty good anthology for YA readers. I would give this book a 3.75. Not quite a 4, but definitely not a solid 3. Thank you to Algonquin Young Readers and Laura Silverman (editor) of this collection of short stories, and for providing this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.

Gorgeous, dorky, nerdy, and relatable with just the right amount of romance, this book is a must-read for those who are looking for perfect (or imperfect) balance. . This novel takes the reader into the colourful world of Ariel Stone (or Ariel Moshe, his full Hebrew name), a bisexual senior high school student who is in the run for valedictorian. He does his best to be (or to look like) the perfect teenager everyone expects him to be that pressure from doing so almost drove him to the edge. Lucky for him, his relationship with his tutor is one of the things that give him the drive to keep on going, but he struggles on how to make it work with an already tight schedule as well. . Beautifully discussing the pursuit of perfection and the price that comes along with it, @ljsilverman1 has given her readers a lot to think about on how to deal with life itself. . This is one of the books I have read that has given me a tear or two in my eyes, and I perfectly love it. . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ . 🇨🇦🍁 🤗 📕📙📒📗📘 🤗 🍁🇨🇦 . #YouAskedForPerfect #LauraSilverman #ArielXAmir #Armir #ArielAmir #YABook #BookReview #YABookReview #RaNtsOfAQueerGuy https://www.instagram.com/p/CFX9ui3Hy-O/?igshid=1qro1prgazk6a
