THRILLED to be on Women &a Children First's top 5 YA list among such great titles. #Repost @wcfbook with @repostapp ・・・ And here they are: Jamie's Top 5 Favorite Young Adult Books of 2016! Jamie, our manager and YA Expert, says it's been a phenomenal year for young adult fiction that's emotionally engaging for all ages! Here's her pitch for each one starting with number 5) Sun is Also a Star: an epic romance set against the backdrop of immigration policies and parental pressures. 4) Study in Charlotte: follows the great great grandchildren of Holmes and Watson as they solve their own mysteries. This is a much-needed feminist addition to the Sherlock Holmes canon. 3) Symptoms of Being Human: an honest and ultimately uplifting exploration of a gender nonconforming teenager. 2) Kids of Appetite: a murder mystery and an homage to SE Hinton's The Outsiders, this novel follows a ragtag group of smart and deeply sympathetic kids who overcome individually awful circumstances through the strength of their family--not the one they were born into, but the one they found 1) Serpent King: THE BEST BOOK EVER--#jk #seriouslytho --a heartbreaking story of three friends navigating family, belonging, and faith set in small town Tennessee. #sunisalsoastar #studyincharlotte #symptomsofbeinghuman #kidsofappetite #serpentking #topfivebooks #yafiction #bestbooks2016

We would like to mention these three superb books to you. Moonlight Flyer: The Diary of a Second World War Navigator is based on the unique diary of a Czechoslovakian navigator who served with No. 311 (Czechoslovak) Bomber Squadron during the Second World War. Don't miss British Bombing Policy During the Second World War - a frank and unbiased assesment of the initial indiscriminate bombing and the subsequent role of targeting and intelligence. And finally, we thoroughly recommend No Echo in the Sky - a delightfully written book where Harald Penrose draws on personal experiences from his long and distinguished career.
