Donation of the day.

I live in a small town with a small library, and unsurprisingly, my small library has the sort of small budget that calls for lots of creative thinking and whatnot.

And since now—as of today!—I'm RUNNING THE SHOW at the library, I've decided to donate a book every day that I work. After all, I have PLENTY, and it'll make me happy to share.

Today's book: Shadow and Bone, by Leigh Bardugo:

The onion domes suggest Russia. The font suggests historical fiction, while the red lines in the font point more specifically toward a war story. The title and color scheme suggest dark and spooky. The swooping lines suggest romance, either lurrrve or heroism. And the whole package suggests classic fairy tale.*

And that’s sort of what it is.

Unless otherwise noted, all donated books come from my personal collection, and have been reviewed by me, either here or at Kirkus Reviews.
