Your local high school English teacher is here with her top five books she read this year!
I adore each of these books! Most of them are for middle grade or YA audiences, but those are the audiences I teach and my kids ask me for book recommendations.
Seriously though, please read Project Hail Mary, it's one of my top five books of all time now and I need more people to read it so that I can obsess over it with them.

Title & Author:
Left: We’ll never be apart by Emiko Jean
Right: The Dead House by Dawn Kurtagich
Why: both these books are hard to explain without spoiling because they both have an unreliable narrator, but trust me if you like one you will most likely like the other as well
Both have female leads looking for their sister, and both have mental hospital as well having themes of memory and loss

The Return of Ellie Black
by Emiko Jean / 4.5 stars
I read this book in one sitting, staying up late into the night, needing the next journal entry from Ellie.
Chelsey Calhoun is used t0 investigating missing girls. She's even more used to their stories ending badly. It ended that way for her sister, and Chelsey has never quite managed to get over that night, to wishing she could do everything differently. When Ellie Black returns after being missing for 2 years, Chelsey hopes her escape can lead to finding the man who took her.
Interviews with Ellie don't go as planned though. Chelsey doesn't want to push, though she quickly realizes Ellie is hiding things from her. When it becomes clear that there are more girls that can be traced to Ellie's case, both bodies and girls that might still be alive, Chelsey is even more desperate to get whatever information she can from Ellie. Even if that means treating her more as an accomplice than a victim.
As Chelsey gets more lost in the case, in her past, her marriage frays. She's supposed to be packing up her childhood home, looking for houses to finally take the next step in truly starting a life with her husband. Instead, she uses her father's old home office to dig deeper into everything she has on Ellie's disappearance. She can't bring herself to box up her old life, come to terms with her father or her sister's deaths. Maybe that's the fate of a marriage when a detective is involved.
Gripping, twisting, I was absolutely thrilled with this book. I've had Tokyo Dreaming and Tokyo Ever After on my TBR for awhile, and I'm looking forward to them even more now, even with the genre change.
