WHAT I READ LAST
I loved both of these books. They were both super creepy! YOU was stalker creepy and The Hiding Place was ghost creepy.
A beautifully written story based on the author’s dad’s experiences growing up. Almost every day Stella goes to a segregated school and she witnesses some of the townspeople threaten and hurt the other black people. I was heartbroken during the scene when Stella’s dad registers to vote. People were so disrespectful and just plain evil. Through out all of these trials, Stella continues to try and write about all of these experiences even though it is difficult for her to get the words on paper. This book is a great example of resilience, friendship, family, love, and hope.
This was definitely a 5 star read! Click here to read my review.

WHAT I AM READING NEXT
I am so excited to get to On the Come Up at some point this year, I hope you are enjoying it! Stella by Starlight sounds absolutely amazing, I’ll have to see if I can find a copy.

I am having mix feelings about On the Come Up. Some parts are fabulous and some boring. I ended up reading Where the Heart Is today. It was really, really good. I cried twice.
