Last year I put together a list of some books that I thought were perfect to

do it again!

BLOG TOUR: The Oyster Thief
Today's blog post is an interview with Sonia Faruqi, the
author of The Oyster Thief which comes out
October 16th. Myself and some other bloggers have
come together to celebrate the release and share some
exciting posts until the day of release.
The Oyster Thief is a tale of Coralline, a mermaid on a
quest to find a magic elixir to save her brother. She meets
Izar, a human who is also on a quest to find a cure for his
dying father. The two continue their journey together, but
the secrets they hide threaten the trust and affection they
have built for one another.
I asked Sonia Faruqi some questions about her
upcoming book as well as some questions
about her journey as a writer/author.

REVIEW: A Very Large Expanse of Sea by Tahereh Mafi
Genre: Contemporary, Young Adult
Publisher: HarperTeen
ISBN: 0062866567
Format: Hardback, Paperback, E-Book,
Audio-Book
Release Date: 16th October 2018
Links: Goodreads, Amazon.com, Indigo,
B&N, Book Depository
Rating: 9/10
Synopsis:
It’s 2002, a year after 9/11. It’s an extremely turbulent time politically, but especially so for someone like Shirin, a sixteen-year-old Muslim girl who’s tired of being stereotyped.
Shirin is never surprised by how horrible people can be. She’s tired of the rude stares, the degrading comments—even the physical violence—she endures as a result of her race, her religion, and the hijab she wears every day. So she’s built up protective walls and refuses to let anyone close enough to hurt her. Instead, she drowns her frustrations in music and spends her afternoons break-dancing with her brother.
