Divergent/Insurgent/Allegiant by Veronica Roth: Listened to on audiobook and loved. It is funny because a blogger I respect totally slammed the trilogy as being all teen angst. Well... it is. But, BUT, it has a message. A number of good messages, really, delivered in an interesting way. I must admit that by the end I was all, "Really? You need to lead ANOTHER uprising? How many of these things can happen to YOU?" So what started out as a 5 star series for me worked its way down to a 4. But looking back at Goodreads, I was writing down quotes all over the place. Which for me is the highest compliment. It is good. Highly recommended.
Fan Art by Sarah Tregay: This was a nice YA read. Elevated a bit by the subject matter, but not super special. I enjoyed it.
Wait for You/Be with Me/Trust in Me by J. Lynn: Teen romance, lol! But well-loved teen romance, and I enjoyed it too.
I clearly went with a YA themed January. YA is my go-to beach read, steady enjoyment, mental break space. It was lovely!! I do have plans to graduate back to adulthood for February, though...
