Stanley and Hazel by Jo Schaffer
Release Date: May 15, 2018
Publisher: Month9Books
When they discover the body of a girl
with her head bashed in by a baseball bat, the very different and
separate realities of the two teens inform their decision. Together
they will figure out what happened to her and bring those responsible
to justice.
But getting involved with each other
and digging into the secrets behind this murder earns them some
powerful enemies, including a secret group seeking to rid society of
all they deem “undesirable.” They’ve put into motion “The
Winnowing,” a plan seeking to take over the city and enforce their
will.
As Stanley and Hazel’s forbidden
feelings for one another grow, their investigation turns deadly. Now,
it is up to Stanley and his gang of street kids to stop Hazel from
becoming the next victim.

Why You’ll Love
this book
Stanley and Hazel is
a fun read. There is mystery, forbidden love, secrets, corruption and
danger. The 1930s setting is a world of social disparity, jazz,
slang, and fading innocence. The characters, while from another era,
experience the same feelings and issues as we do today. Standing
against tyranny starts in recognizing it in all its forms and
hopefully this book will inspire readers to do so!

I really wanted to review this one, but it came at the wrong time when I had too many other ones going! It is on my to-read list though and I can't wait :)
