Oh no! How did that get in here?
Is that by...us? Must have gotten mixed up with a post. Oh well! Since we're already here, clearly you're here for the big cover reveal!
The Unforgettables is an idea Libertad came up with, and I helped morph it into what it is now. I admit, while it's YA, it's on the Upper YA scale, and since it deals with touchy topics, it might even blur the line between YA and NA.
Curious to know more? Read on...
Reasons why I choose The Unforgettables:
~The main characters are both of color. Felicia, the female MC is Haitian-American, while Paul, the male MC is mixed race(Japanese and Welsh; will have a future post on why we chose him to be biracial).
~It's sex positive for girls, which is hard to find for girls in YA/NA. Whether or not you like sex portrayed in books with teenagers, they need safer places to learn about sex, and fiction written for them is the best place!
~It deals with friendship first. While it does focus on love in the book, it's complicated.
~It deals with issues like dyslexia, getting into college, and many other things teens deal with. If you like more than a love story, here you go ;p
It releases in September, though the exact date we're not sure of. You can add it to your TBR list on Goodreads though!

What a "different" cover. It's intriguing.
ReplyDeleteAre you doing a blog tour for this one? And do you think someone who doesn't like heavy doses of romance in their books would enjoy this one?
@Roberta, the book has about the same amount of romance tmon did. Its complicated, so they like each other but don't actually date for a number of reasons.
ReplyDeleteI think if you like humor it might appeal to you(a ton of memorable funny secondary characters) and since its a female/male friendship it might also appeal to you.
I'm almost done with my guest post so when I email you I had a few things to tell you :)
