Welcome back to Freebie Friday! I have been behind on reading, and am now getting a bit more caught up.
So I have two great choices for my winner -- who can choose either book or both:

The Memory of Light by Francisco X. Stork
Some of the Parts by Hannah Barnaby
If you're a fan of darker contemporary YA (like I am!) you don't want to pass these up. The Memory of Light is about a girl's recovery from a suicide attempt. A lot of YA has dealt with characters' grief over a friend of loved one's suicide, but it's not often that a YA book chronicles what happens after a character survives a suicide attempt -- how do they deal with what led them to suicide and -- maybe -- learn to embrace life again? Some of the Parts (which I'll be reviewing in early March) is about a girl coming to terms with the sudden death of her older brother.
Both of these books tackle tough subjects, but both are ultimately life-affirming, if that helps you decide!
This giveaway has ended.
Both books look excellent. Thanks for hosting the giveaway!
