A Scatter of Light by Malinda Lo
4.25

If you liked Last Night At The Telegraph Club, you will LOVE this. This YA novel follows Aria during the summer after her senior year of high school, as she experiences slut shaming, first love, longing, grief, and gets a dose of adulthood. This sapphic story is not really a romance, but I could feel the feelings so strongly throughout the book.

This book made me smile and tear up, and I felt so many emotions throughout. I loved the main character and her relationships with her various family members, even if some were messy. I got so drawn into this story & was so invested. An amazing YA that the youth needed. Highly recommend it! The audiobook is fantastic.
