Five Feet Apart
Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott My rating: 3 of 5 stars This book has a lot going on and a romance that is not as lovey-dovey as a lot of YA books have.

Hello, Universe
Hello, Universe by Erin Entrada Kelly My rating: 3 of 5 stars This was a really cute book that I feel teaches important lessons, especially in today's world.
