Hi guys! Today I wanted to show off some teen book picks from Indigo. Back in September last year Chapters Indigo introduced a new program called Indigo Teen Staff Pick of the Month. Since December I've been sharing each month's selection as a photo on my Instagram account. I wanted to summarize the picks from the past few months on the blog today.

Goodreads Summary:

Sixteen-year-old and not-so-openly gay Simon Spier prefers to save his drama for the school musical. But when an email falls into the wrong hands, his secret is at risk of being thrust into the spotlight. Now Simon is actually being blackmailed: if he doesn’t play wingman for class clown Martin, his sexual identity will become everyone’s business. Worse, the privacy of Blue, the pen name of the boy he’s been emailing, will be compromised.

With some messy dynamics emerging in his once tight-knit group of friends, and his email correspondence with Blue growing more flirtatious every day, Simon’s junior year has suddenly gotten all kinds of complicated. Now, change-averse Simon has to find a way to step out of his comfort zone before he’s pushed out—without alienating his friends, compromising himself, or fumbling a shot at happiness with the most confusing, adorable guy he’s never met.

2015 "Real" Book Challenge November Wrap-Up

2015 "Real" Book Challenge hosted by Swoony Boys Podcast and Fic Fare.

I read these 'real' books in the month of November.

Technically today's still November but I know I won't be reading any more 'real' books so I've gone ahead and tallied up my count. I was sick at home one weekend so I just read and read. I ended up finishing three books in two days! Not too bad right? ;D
 

How many 'real' books did you read in the month of November?
