Sasha Masha by Agnes Borinsky

And you know, I'm a title N*** and cover N*** and all of that. So I'm like Sasha. Really? But it was the shortest book of the six books that they gave us this month. So I was like, okay, fine. I'll just try it. And boy was I pleasantly surprised. It's a ya. So it's a teenage story, but it's a teenage, I wouldn't say coming of age story

Book review. Have you read this one? Care to join the conversation. @bowie, @loribpalmer, @NamelessJournal

Hey Chanel, that was a good minireview of Sasha Masha, which is a book I haven't come across before this, so thank you for the Rec. And from what I understand, looks like the book is as well about coming out, but one that's less focused on the logistics of coming out, and much more on how trying to understand your real identity can feel with relatable characters that feel authentic and not too contrived

Should I do more mini book reviews? @NamelessJournal

Hey, Ramya, How's it going? So, yeah, no Teamlet is not for everyone at all times. There are times I like, teen lit, and there are times I don't. So while I was reading this, I was like, and then, as it goes on the whole coming out thing. But like you said, it wasn't, like, about coming out. It's about a self discovery for the person to discover what they are before they can even come out

YES, please!🤩

I think it would be a brilliant idea if you could share more such mini book reviews of your recent reads here on Swell. I personally would find it super helpful. As you know, I'm always is on the lookout for good book recommendations. And as I usually don't prefer reading up too much about a book before I go for it, a mini review that's shorter and much CRISPR would suit me better, especially if it's one coming from seasoned reader as yourself

I am so excited to hear more of your thoughts on this book and it's making me wonder if I should check it out on Libra FM when I get my next book on there
