Let It Snow by: Lauren Myracle, Maureen Johnson, John Green
Let It Snow is a collection of three interconnected holiday romances by John Green, Mau- reen Johnson, and Lauren Myra- cle. Set in the cozy, snow-covered town of Gracetown on Christ- mas Eve, the stories revolve around a massive snowstorm
that disrupts everyone’s plans. Maureen Johnson’s “The Jubi- lee Express” follows Jubilee, who finds herself stranded and unex-
pectedly meets a boy who helps her see things in a new way. In John Green’s “A Cheertastic Christmas Miracle,” a group of friends braves the storm for an unforgettable night of adventure and romance. Finally, Lauren Myracle’s “The Patron Saint of Pigs” centers on a girl grappling with heartbreak and learning about forgiveness, with a bit of holiday magic thrown in.
Dash & Lily's Book of Dares by: Rachel Cohn, David Levithan
Dash & Lily's Book of Dares by Rachel Cohn and David Lev- ithan follows the story of two teens, Dash and Lily, who strike up an unconventional connec-
tion through a red notebook they trade back and forth across New York City. It all begins when Dash discovers the notebook hid- den among shelves at the Strand Bookstore, filled with clues and dares from Lily. As they take turns daring each other to venture out- side their comfort zones, they explore the city’s quirks and cor- ners, all during the holiday sea- son. Despite never meeting, Dash and Lily form a surprising bond, opening up to each other in ways they might not in person. This book was also made into a fantas- tic short Netflix series for anyone looking to continue the magic!
