My Week In Books (8th April)

With no book post and a reading list almost entirely from NetGalley, this week has been very Kindle orientated. Let's get stuck in!

I bought these three non-fiction books that I've seen a lot of the YA community raving about recently.

I also got approved for these reads on NetGalley. I can't wait to get stuck in!

It's the school holidays, so I've done a lot of reading this week. I finished The Upside of Unrequited (5★), read Goodbye Days (3★), and started Orangeboy. They're all very different books, and I've enjoyed them all for different reasons.

REVIEW: Goodbye Days by Jeff Zentner

Goodbye Days are the days you spend with the parents of your three dead best friends. They're not easy and they will make you cry. But for Carver Briggs, the guilt of knowing his text led to their deaths makes it so much worse.

Goodbye Days was difficult to read. Carver is a likeable character, and you really feel for him as he goes through the grief of losing his best friends, all while being blamed for their deaths. I can't say I enjoyed it because of the subject matter, but it was definitely a book I couldn’t put down.

Stars: ★★★☆☆

I received a copy of Goodbye Days from Penguin Random House via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
