In the first three chapters of On The Come Up, you’re reminded why Angie Thomas is one the top authors whose books quickly get optioned for movies.

The Sun Is Also A Star is a welcome change from the usual YA novel by addressing the idea of fate and taking it to task.

We’re taking a huge leap, about 150 pages, which holds a HUGE amount of drama – and some good old fashion tension (partly of the sexual kind).

Natasha begins to develop hope, but that is met with a few realizations, particularly with Daniel’s family, which could kill things like a relaxer.

Natasha finds herself stalked by Daniel, yeah it’s one of those books, but he might just be growing on her.

We begin The Sun Is Also A Star, learning about our leads and their families, alongside random people who’ll likely be cut from the movie.

Rabbit can be seen as the story behinds the jokes. Ms. Pat stripping away the punch lines and solely getting to the facts.

The Hate U Give is the type of book which could prevent many from ever having the ability to say, “I don’t like to read.”

Leah on the Offbeat fills in a lot of the gaps and questions about Simon’s best friend Leah, as well as bring readers some bi-sexual representation.

While the level of detail in descriptions and family history can be overwhelming, once you get into Crazy Rich Asians, you’re hooked.
