I recently read Jade City by Fonda Lee and it. Was. Amazing. It's adult though, so if you want something more middle grade, I would recommend Okay For Now by Gary D. Schmidt and The Remarkable Journey of Coyote Sunrise by Dan Gemeinhart.

You should read Violets are Blue by Barbara Dee :) I just re-read it and it's so interesting!!
tennislover_omg tennislover_omg

I think you should read The Odd Sisters by Serena Valentino. It’s a really good book and it is just one of the books from the amazing series(Disney villains) by Serena Valentino ! So I definitely recommend this book!📖📘📕📚😁

techfashion0315 techfashion0315

I would suggest Disney's Twisted Tale series. I just read "So This Is Love" by Elizabeth Lim (It's a Twisted Tale about Cinderella) and oh my goodness!! My favorite book for sure!!
