I'm gonna admit, I'm somewhat in a deep-ish phase of loving 70s, 80s, and 90s based books. I mean, the whole 90s topic is nothing new, I'm OBSESSED with that era. Anyway, here are just a few books I'm planning on reading soon. LOOK OUT FOR REVIEWS đ
Burn Baby Burn by Meg Medina
Nora Lopez is seventeen during the infamous year 1977 in New York.
After a freezing winter, a boiling hot summer explodes with arson, a blackout, and a serial killer named Son of Sam, who is shooting young people on the streets seemingly at random.
Not only is the city a disaster, but Nora has troubles of her own: her brother, Hector, is growing more uncontrollable by the day, her mother is helpless to stop him, and her father is so busy with his new family that he only calls on holidays.
And it doesnât stop there. The superâs after her mother to pay their overdue rent, and her teachers are pushing her to apply for college, but all Nora wants is to turn eighteen and be on her own. There is a cute guy who started working with her at the deli, but is dating even worth the risk when the killer especially likes picking off couples who stay out too late?
The Mall by Megan McCafferty
