    42. Paranormalcy- Kiersten White

    Welcome back everyone! This week, Evie is ready to take on the supernatural world with her pink bedazzled taser and her stiletto boots.

    39. Crossed- Ally Condie

    SEQUEL EPISODE: (33) This book might not answer our biggest questions, like “What even is sorting,” or “Is Cassia a half-robot,” but it’s chock full of… other stuff. Like the reinvention of therapy, and a list of people who might be the Pilot. Spoiler alert: everyone is on that list. Including you. Congratulations, you’re now leading a rebellion against the robot government that tried to eradicate cancer by killing off all the sopranos. Good luck.
