Weekend Whats

What to Book: “A teenage girl breaks free from her father’s world of isolation to discover that her whole life is a lie.” She also learns a lot about what we got right and what we got terribly wrong during the early days of the internet. A new novel from Janelle Brown, What Kind of Paradise.
