Happy Wednesday, bookworms! 🐪 I’m already on coffee cup 2 and still dragging... but here’s to hoping cup 3 does the trick! 😉😂🙃 . New fun book mail came last week! I’ve been dying to read this one, so yay!!! It sounds so, so good!! Thanks, @randomhousekids for this fab surprise!! Dear Martin by @getnicced releases October 17th! Add this one to your TBRs! 🤓🖤📖 ________________________________________________________ 📖Summary: Justyce McAllister is top of his class, captain of the debate team, and set for the Ivy League next year—but none of that matters to the police officer who just put him in handcuffs. He is eventually released without charges (or an apology), but the incident has Justyce spooked. Despite leaving his rough neighborhood, he can’t seem to escape the scorn of his former peers or the attitude of his prep school classmates. The only exception: Sarah Jane, Justyce’s gorgeous—and white—debate partner he wishes he didn’t have a thing for. . Struggling to cope with it all, Justyce starts a journal to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. But do Dr. King’s teachings hold up in the modern world? Justyce isn’t so sure. . Then comes the day Justyce goes driving with his best friend, Manny, windows rolled down, music turned up. Way up. Much to the fury of the white off-duty cop beside them. Words fly. Shots are fired. And Justyce and Manny get caught in the crosshairs. In the media fallout, it’s Justyce who is under attack. The truth of what happened that night—some would kill to know. Justyce is dying to forget. ________________________________________________________ #dearmartin #nicstone #booknerd #bookworm #bookmail #bookish #tbr #yalit #ya #ireadya #flatlay #autumnvibes #vintagevibes #igdaily #vscobooks #vscodaily #booksandbeans #coffeetime #diversebooks

The cover for Dear Martin was revealed a little while ago, so I can finally take pics of the cover! I'm very lucky to have gotten an early copy of this book, which will release in October. Here's a short blurb from the back cover: • "Dear Martin (AKA Dr. King), Quick intro: Justyce McAllister, seventeen years old, senior and full-scholarship student at the "prestigious" Braselton Preparatory Academy. I'm the debate team captain, ranked fourth in my class, and despite growing up in a "bad" area, I have a bright future ahead of me. Sadly, during the wee hours of this morning , literally none of that mattered. Long story short, I tried to do a good deed and wound up in handcuffs. It shook me, Martin. I need to pay more attention. I wanna try to live like you. Do what you would do. See where it gets me." • Can't wait to read this book! Will definitely make time for it in February. / #bookstagram #nicstone #dearmartin

Did anyone notice where May went? I seem to have missed it completely 😳 I can’t believe I’ve been in England 4 months already! Time is flying by at a rapid rate! I did alright in May - 11 books in total - and slowly building up some momentum again! . The highlights? Thunderhead and Dear Martin - both are bloody brilliant! The lowlights? ACOFAS (boring), and sadly, The Surface Breaks... but more about that in another post! . June is going to be a massive month! Mel and I are seeing Katy Perry in Berlin next week and my parentals are coming to visit! I am SO EXCITED! And I have an overly ambitious TBR for the month... I suspect that not a lot of reading will get done but let’s see how it goes! . #maywrapup #wrapup #thunderhead #nealshusterman #dearmartin #nicstone #loveozya #acofas #thesurfacebreaks #langleav #poetry #bookaholic #bookblogger #bookwormabroad #instabook #lovebooks #igreads #bookstagram #bookworm #bibliophile #bookish #bookgram #reading #fullybooked #bookaddict #diversebooks #bookphoto #bookgeek #booksofinstagram #booklife

Boom Town: A Novel by Nic Stone

Pub date - 10/14/25

As someone who can’t relate to comparing this to television shows, I loved the premise and found this timely regarding some heavy duty subject matter (human trafficking and domestic violence) and fresh and enjoyed it enough to read through it in less than a week but had trouble keeping track of all the characters actual names/nicknames and felt deflated by the ending.

This was my first book by Ms Stone, and I will read more of her adult works.

Thank you to Simon & Schuster and NetGalley for the DRC

📚 #HowToBeAYoungAntiracist 👀 How about a little non-fiction in your feed? I definitely needed this book not only in my feed but also in my life. The audiobook was a quick listen and narrated by both authors. @nicstone @ibramxk How to Be a Young Antiracist is based on the original book How to Be an Antiracist. I love books like this (Stamped) that are written for a younger audience. While the originals are great the younger generation needs to be able to consume them at their level. They don't need to wait until they are older to understand these concepts. There is some oversimplification but what are you going to do? If this brings people to the table to talk about issues it's done its job. We need more conversations happening. Thank you Nic Stone for taking the original book and breaking it down so it is easier to digest for the younger reader. Your #nicsnotes are the best! Open your mind, read this book, change the world. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #nicstone #ibramxkendi#yabooks #bookstagram #booklover #bookworm #bookstagrammer #yabookstagram #bookish #booknerd #bibliophile #yalit #howtobeanantiracist #booksofinstagram #bookaddict #youngadultbooks #bookphotography #book #booksbooksbooks #readersofinstagram #ya #bookcommunity #yareads #ireadya #yafiction #bookreview #bookaholic #youngadult https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp-5sy4go_H/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
