Friday Finds #1

Friday Finds is a weekly event hosted by Should Be Reading. It’s where you share the book titles you discovered or heard about during the past week. These can be books you were told about, books you discovered while browsing blogs/bookstores online, or books that you actually purchased.

My this week’s finds are three very popular YA books:

1. The Perks Of Being A Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky

2. The Fault In Our Stars by John Green

3. Looking For Alaska by John Green

I came across all the 3 books while going through a lot of book blogs. The ratings of these books and the cute covers really tempted me to get my hands on them asap! I was travelling the other day when I read about Amazon’s book sale, so I bought these books there and then for 50% off.

I’m looking forward to get get the delivery by Monday. Will review the books once I am finished reading them. Fingers crossed!

Ep.19: Coffee Conversations with Author Heena with Guest Author Jessica Jane Robinson - Coffee Conversations With Author Heena Pardeshi

Listen to this one-of-a-kind episode of my podcast, Coffee Conversations with Author Heena, where I talk to Miss Alameda Jessica Jane Robinson, a pageant winner, social worker and environmental activist, about her environmental superhero book Resilience: Birthright.Jessica Jane Robinson aka superhero Resilience attended the University of San Francisco, receiving her BA degree in Performing Arts and Social Justice with a minor in dance. Jessica participated as Miss Alameda in the 2010 and 2011 Miss California USA pageants. As Miss Alameda, she founded the grassroots program, "Miss Alameda Says Compost!" helping the City of Alameda address its Climate Protection Plan adopted in 2008 and helping it reach its diversion goals by 2020. Ms. Robinson has been an Al Gore Climate Leader since August 2012, is in the top 1% out of 10,812 Climate Leaders around the world, and has presented to over 17,130 people (2017). She has served on the Board of Directors for the Northern California Recycling Association since 2013, served as treasurer from 2013-2016, Vice President from 2017-2022, and is currently the President.Resilience: Birthright is different from other comics; it encourages fans to become leaders who actively reduce climate change, pollution, and the depletion of natural resources.These stories are based on real heroes who help restore our planet and address actual environmental challenges through fictional storytelling and characters.BONUS: Author Robinson talks about her schedule of waking up at 5:00 am (sometimes even 4) and shares how she manages to juggle between her work and passion for saving the environment and how she has brought everything together in this series of illustrated environmental graphic novels.
