Each Night Was Illuminated
The back of this ARC reads , which frustrates me because I think it could sit comfortably next to any John Green book and prove itself just as strong and relevant - especially with characters in the upper teens. Although, while reading it, I was reminded powerfully of the experience of reading Because of Winn Dixie, the first book to make me laugh out loud, that has stayed with me for many years. I think there's a frightful mess going on in the publishing industry around the YA shelf that has everything to do with the aging audience of Harry Potter, but I digress.
Wherever this book is on the shelf, it's gorgeous, and I'm going to happily recommend it to everyone that comes into the store. The prose is delightful, the voice friendly, funny, and wise, and the story both whimsical and real. The feather light touch of speculative elements pushed this into the realm of some of my favorite books I've ever read. Unlike Windswept, another children's ARC dealing with the reality of climate change, Each Night Was Illuminated gives me a world that is real, immediate, tangible, and almost unchanged as a writer whose dabbled in this realm myself, this is the take I didn't know I needed. Thank you, JLA. This

The Vanishing Season
There is a wonderfully mature main character, loveable side characters, believably flawed characters, with amazing relationships. It has the most believable, well-drawn love triangles I have ever read. I fully confess to enjoying this love triangleand for me, that happens roughly every time Mars and Jupiter aligns.
But this is not a ghost story. It is not a mystery.
It is a contemporary romance which takes place in a small town. Nothing happens in this book. It is a book about a girl and her first foray into romance. It is a really, really well-written book.
It's just not a ghost story like I expected.
Despite the fact that there are girls going missing, getting murdered, there was absolutely nothing remotely scary about this book. If I were to estimate, I'd say that the mentions of the missing girl, the "ghost," takes up about 5% of this book. It was hardly worth mentioning, and I can't imagine why the heck the publisher chose to promote this book as a ghost story when it was so clearly not.
The Summary:
I’m part of this house, and the residents can hear me in their sleep. I rattle the dishes an
