Timely, Necessary & Important
Format: Hardcover
Oh, I absolutely adored Jasmine Warga’s Other Words for Home, a moving story told in verse of a Syrian girl and her mother fleeing from their home in their war torn country. It’s impossible not to feel empathetic towards the family as they are split up over the turmoil. I was immersed in Jude’s thoughts, feelings, and experiences in America as it was so poetically and honestly written. The Arabic proverbs referred to in the story were so beautiful and poignant, enhancing an already authentic, necessary and emotional look into the life of immigrants. This novel should be in every school library as it unabashedly encourages the need for kindness and understanding for all...important messages we should always be teaching and promoting...and students . I love having and supporting students like Jude in my class as they beam with pride learning and overcoming challenges—it warms my heart when they feel accepted and loved as they should.

Necessary, Poignant, Powerful, Beautiful
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book for myself, but would recommend it for anyone 11+. It is a beautiful, hopeful story about a girl growing up between worlds, honoring her heritage and parents' culture while embracing her new community and breaking out into her own wonderful self. It touches on really important themes about conflict, violence, identity, hate crimes, family tensions, growing up, and more, but all with grace, honesty, and tenderness. This would be an amazing conversation starter for teens and preteens.
I am not a refugee, but I grew up crossing cultures, and this story brought me to tears in all the best ways. I cannot recommend it enough!

Highlands and highlights
Format: Kindle
I always enjoy Clare’s books an “Not Part of the Plan” didn’t disappoint. I love that the MC’s were childhood friends that had drifted apart but found their way back to each other.
I could identify with Poppy not wanting to be a part of the family business as I didn’t want to go in to my family business. I moved to the other side of the country and went into another business too.
I loved Poppy and Eliza’s love story. I also loved that Poppy’s mother and grandmother’s spirits were there to help Poppy found her way with her future.
Clare keep writing your great love stories. This story is a read again story as is the London series. Thanks for the great story.
