Goodreads Monday is hosted by Lauren’s Page Turners. You choose a random book from your TBR on Goodreads to share.
This week my choice is Akata Witch (I just ordered this one).
Sunny Nwazue lives in Nigeria, but she was born in New York City. Her features are West African, but she’s albino. She’s a terrific athlete, but can’t go out into the sun to play soccer. There seems to be no place where she fits in. And then she discovers something amazing—she is a “free agent” with latent magical power. And she has a lot of catching up to do.
Soon she’s part of a quartet of magic students, studying the visible and invisible, learning to change reality. But just as she’s finding her footing, Sunny and her friends are asked by the magical authorities to help track down a career criminal who knows magic, too. Will their training be enough to help them against a threat whose powers greatly outnumber theirs?
The cover is gorgeous. I’ll be interested to see your review for the book

You have THE MOST amazing layout! Are the books on the header your own? Because if they are, I would die to visit you and see it for myself! It’s the first collection of books which are ALL the most beautiful hardbacks!
