โข the red room โข Weโve reached the point in history where we can now write Covid-19 stories (and Iโm not talking about the erotica book about falling in love with the virus ๐). Bestselling authors, @chandlerbakerbooks and @wesleykingauthor, worked together to bring us a witty, thought-provoking YA love story during quarantine. Big thanks to @PenguinTeen for the copy! This book is available now! Maxine and Jonah bump into each other in the canned goods aisle of the grocery store Max works at, just as California is entering into lockdown. The supermarket is about to turn into a hellish gauntlet and Jonahโs preexisting anxiety is about to hit overdrive. As Max and Jonah, as well as their friends, live together but apart through hijinks, humanity, and heartbreak, Hello (From Here) cuts across urgent matters much bigger than a teenage crush. Differences in class, privilege, mental health, and sacrifice are thrown into stark relief by the profound and personal stresses of the Covid-19 pandemic. โจ If anyone wants to buddy read this with me, please let me know! Iโve love to gush about this little romance with someone in real time! ยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยทยท ๐ท #HelloFromHere #PenguinTeen #DialBooks #ChandlerBaker #WesleyKing #YARomance #YAContemporary #YAFiction #BooksAndPlants #PlantsAndBooks #ZZPlant #Bibliophile #IGReads #CurrentlyReading #BookRec #InstaRead #LoveToRead #BooksAreLife #BookReviewer #BookAddicts #BookPost #TBRPile #BookPhotography #WhatToReadNext #BookWorm (at Saint Joseph, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTxeLCtri8U/?utm_medium=tumblr
