Barnes & Noble Lake success

Today’s Friday recommendation comes from our SIM Katelyn. She recommends Gods of Jade and Shadow by Silvia Moreno-Garcia. A story of Mayan mythology set against the Mexico of 1920, it explores the ups and downs of familial rivalries between humans and gods alike. If you enjoyed Moreno-Garcia’s Mexican Gothic, definitely come back for her earlier novel! #booksellerrecommends #fridayrecs #bookstagram #godsofjadeandshadow @silviamg.author #myweekendisbooked #bnli

Angeline Boulley’s debut novel is Angie Thomas meets Tommy Orange. A groundbreaking thriller, it follows Daunis Fontaine, an 18-year-old who has never fit in. When family tragedy strikes and Daunis witnesses a murder, she agrees to go undercover, drawing on her knowledge of both chemistry and Ojibwe traditional medicine to track down the source of a lethal new drug. #newbooks #yabooks #teenbooks @angelineboulley #reeseyabookclub #bookstagram #myweekendisbooked #bnli
