Hello everyone! Since this is a YA group, our normal BOTMs are going to be specifically young adult books, but for this first BOTM for May, you can suggest almost any book.

Aleena | 38 comments I've been hearing good things about A Darker Shade of Magic by V E Schwabb

Melvina | 11 comments I'd just finished Simon vs the Homosapien Agenda. Pretty good–*ahem* I mean amazing. You guys should try it. By the way, it's LGBTQ.

The May BOTM has already been decided!!! Sorry for those of you whose suggestions weren't part of it, but there's always next time. We are doing a dual BOTM, which will include Ninth House and The Selection, since this is a YA group and not everyone may be comfortable reading an NA book. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
