Aristotle and Dante volume 1.
Average Rating:
4.7 stars
Notes:
This is, honestly, one of the most beautiful books I have ever read. Ari is a bit of a loner with growing anger issues, trying to understand his place in the world. Dante is sure of himself and outgoing, even if he is an oddball. Their friendship (turned romance) is like two trees grafted together, growing into a more beautiful whole. This story is honest, vulnerable, and inspiring. I am moved to tears every time I read it. This is a book that makes you feel seen and, once seen, tenderly accepted.
Description:
Fifteen-year-old Ari Mendoza is an angry loner with a brother in prison, but when he meets Dante and they become friends, Ari starts to ask questions about himself, his parents, and his family that he has never asked before.

Notes:
This fantastical, lesbian retelling of Cinderella is at once a heady romance and a coming-of-age story. Not only does Lo change up the love interest to be the prince's female huntress, she also substitutes the beloved fairy godmother for a tricky, untrustworthy fairy man. Readers interested in (fractured) fairy tales will love this Cinderella narrative turned on its head. It is a dark and enthralling look into how far a person may go to win love, and how great the cost may be.
