Mod. 1- Award Winning: Written in the Stars

Hello!  Today I'll be sharing my quick book talk on the California Young Reader Medal young adult winner for 2019, Written in the Stars by Aisha Saeed.  

Excerpt:
"Besides, we can control many things. But not whom we marry. Our marriage was written before we ever existed.  We could no more keep this marriage from taking place that we could control the weather."
