A story where our shadows are the enemy and our minds might be even worse. The people of Atlas have survived the unimaginable but just barely. All of them are waiting around at the drop of a hat to be next. That's where our MC Anthem comes in. This story was such a refreshing and original take on the usual dystopian post-apocalyptic genre.
I didn't want to put it down and when I had to I was immediately ready to go pick it back up. It's fast-paced and action-packed in the best of ways and you really are taken along for the ride with Anthem as he has to decide within himself whether his morals outweigh the easy choices everyone else wants to make. The simplicity of the twists and turns the author gives us only adds to our story. I can't wait to reread this book once it's released.

Mushrooming: An Illustrated Guide to the Fantastic, Delicious, Deadly, and Strange World of Fungi

I LOVED reading this and discovering so many things. I've never picked up a book about mushrooms even though they're one of my favorite things. The illustrations were gorgeous and kept your attention on every page where you learned something new. I think everyone should have a book like this in their home and the knowledge held within it.

Usually retellings are hit and miss with me, maybe because I’m always on the hunt for NEW stories to obsess over. But this book right here soared for me. It didn’t stop at just being another retold story, it gave SO MUCH MORE. My only con would be that at points it was a little slow and took some extra motivation but the end result was definitely enjoyable to say the least.
The aesthetics I picture for this book in my head are top tier. I enjoyed how unique this story felt to me. A little cheesy maybe but I was HERE FOR IT. I also adore Poppy so far.
