10 Great Books You Might Not Have Read (Poetry, Fiction, YA, and Non-fiction)
1) 'A Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue' by Mackenzie Lee. Alright, so I'm going to kick things off with a YA novel that I finished about a week ago and have not stopped thinking about since I put it down. A Gentleman's Guide is an tender but swashbuckling story about a young man named Monty an eighteenth century nobleman who struggles with his long-time crush on his best friend, Percy, who is actively persecuted for being born to a white father and black mother. However, matters are complicated further when an embarrassing encounter at Versailles and a stolen puzzle box results in Monty, Percy, and Monty's sister, Felicity, being chased across Europe.

La Anciana, the Busker, and Mr. Marilyn
To minibreak with your class in Barcelona in your third year of high school is to open up a madcap box of chaos. Especially when said high school is located in England, or, more specifically, inner city Birmingham, where the scenery is a blend of grey and brown, with the occasional flash of blue from frequently speeding police vehicles.

The Dragon Isn't Slain in This One
You turn girls into monsters, just so you have dragons to slay. She whose golden flesh is littered with jagged scars from all the times she dragged her claws across her chest and held that beating organ out to you, dripping and pulsing, in her own hand.
