The Stack - June Library Haul

We Should All Be Feminists has been on my radar for awhile, and I certainly wanted to pick it up after reading Half of a Yellow Sun the other month
My oldest just asked to start the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, so I picked up the first one and he's already read five this month! I didn't think it was nearly as wonderful as Smile (and Sisters, which I also read and loved), but those were about a 90s teen girl...
13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl was on the paperback picks shelf, as well as Tiny Little Thing and I've heard positive reviews for both.
I've been meaning to give the Inspector Gamache series by Louise Penny a go, as Anne at Modern Mrs. Darcy recommends her books all the time. I figured I'd start at the beginning with Still Life
Several Goodreads friends gave intriguing reviews on You by Caroline Kepnes, and I had to see what it was all about.
Last, but not least, in the pile is Blue Lily, Lily Blue so I can get all caught up to read The Raven King - the final book (wah!) in the Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater.

And new to the ebook queue:

Small Great Thingsby Jodi Picoult (a NetGally ARC)
Grief Is the Thing with Feathers by Max Porter (lots of buzz on this one, including the Book Riot 'All the Books!' podcast)
Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi (book with ALL the buzz!)

As well as the ones that have been hanging out for awhile:
Bone Gap by Laura Ruby
Your Heart is a Muscle the Size of a Fist by Sunil Yapa
All the Birds in the Sky by Charlie Jane Anders
The Love that Split the World by Emily Henry
The Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll
Happy Again by Jennifer E. Smith
The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson
In a Dark, Dark Wood by Ruth Ware
Seveneves by Neal Stephenson
Aurora by Kim Stanley Robinson
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl by Jesse Andrews
The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown


As always, I'm interested in any thoughts/if you've read the books on this list or others I should know about!
