Echo
by Pam Muñoz Ryan
Since my mom works with the library, she often gets advance copies of not yet released books like this one. I absolutely loved the cover (and then completely randomly opened Instagram and saw one of my friends had liked a photo by the artist who did the cover work -- followed her instantly! Her work is incredible) and decided to give it a read. It's geared toward young adults (the author wrote Esperanza Rising which I loved when I was younger), but I found it to be a beautifully written book. It starts with what reads like a fairy tale, and then follows with three different narratives of children around the world, weaving them together and wrapping the whole story up at the end in a really poignant and enchanting way. I read this book in one evening-- it was full of rich imagination and stories I easily fell into-- and I would highly recommend it for a fun spring or summer read.
