Book Blurb: We all remember our favorite childhood classics, like The Giving Tree and The Velveteen Rabbit. Wink explores those classics through the lens of YA fantasy and science fiction. Featuring stories from bestselling and award-winning authors, including Kendare Blake, Leah Cypess, Stacia Deutsch, David Gerrold, Nancy Holder, Alethea Kontis, Jonathan Maberry, Seanan McGuire, and Maggie Stiefvater, Wink takes us on a wonderful romp through our favorite childhood stories.

Review:

A fun collection of stories that is inspired by a new take on classics! I thought they were all so unique and fun to read and I loved that this collection had drawings in each story, It's a great way to explore new takes on some of your favorite childhood stories.

Book Reviews :

I got this book based on the blurb from Tamora Pierce. I am honestly so glad that I did. This was a fast paced, high fantasy young adult book. I wasn’t bored once reading this and I finished it sooner than I expected. I do recommend this book for a quick fantasy read.

I reviewed Death Marked, book two to Death Sworn by Leah Cypess. 

There may be spoilers. 

[libraryleopard]

Okay now I’m very confused because I was convinced that I had never read Sabriel by Garth Nix but I was digging through the depths of my google drive and found a book review of Witchlanders by Lena Coakley that I wrote for class in 2013 where I compared it to Sabriel by Garth Nix, the Books of Bayern by Shannon Hale, Mistwood by Leah Cypess, and the Chanters of Tremaris series by Kate Constable and I know I read all of those others books so maybe I just read it so long ago that I didn’t remember anything about it? Weird! I’m usually good at remembering what books I've read, even ones I read ages ago.

January’s fave short stories 🌾

Let’s Play Dead - Senaa Ahmad. What if Anne Boleyn can never die? What if she is killed again and again and comes back every time? 'Let's make it so she can't escape. Let's seal the bottle, and shake it, and shake until our hands fall off.'

Fuzhou Nighttime Feeling - Ling Ma. The descriptions of the city interwoven with the narrator's thoughts on their family is gorgeous.. so atmospheric! 'Fuzhou is so hot and sensuous all year-round, the kind of place, my grandma says, that breeds indolence.'

The House of Asterion and Borges and I - Jorge Luis Borges (translations). Both very short & very thought provoking! Highly recommend reading The House of Asterion without any prior knowledge (and then rereading it multiple times..), it's truly brilliant.

The Wind - Lauren Groff. This is very intense but it's so heartbreakingly beautifully written. Major CW for domestic violence and abuse.

Honorable mentions

Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers - Alyssa Wong

Attack Helicopter - Isabel Fall

The Story of the Avenger and the Archangel in the Palace of Sinners - Eduardo Galeano

Standard Loneliness Package - Charles Yu

Going to try and make this a monthly thing this year as a way for me to reflect on what I've read! Discussion/recs welcome <3
