Some are enjoying Spring Break. Others are returning to work and school after several days of relaxation. Whether you are coming or going, there is something for you to read. Consider these three books while putting together your TBR pile this week.

Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of our Deadliest Infection by John Green

John Green visited Sierra Leone in 2019, where he met Henry Reider at Lakka Government Hospital. The two became friends quickly, which ultimately led to John serving as a voice to spread awareness about tuberculosis. In Everything Is Tuberculosis, Green shares his good friend’s journey with the disease and stresses the importance of making the right decisions to shape a world with fewer deaths caused by tuberculosis. 

Wash Day Love by Tanisia Moore

Wash days are not Tasha’s favorite. She despises water in her eyes, ears, and everywhere else. The little one’s sister, mother, and grandmother make things better, though. They all work together to convey the beauty and bond that comes with curly hair. This is a great choice for parents of preschool-aged kids as Wash Day Love could serve as a cool storytime read. 

There Is Nothing For Your Here: Finding Opportunity In The Twenty-First Century by Fiona Hill

Fiona Hill’s upbringing was so desolate that her father advised her to leave northern England for the possibility of a better life. She indeed found greener pastures in both Russia and the United States but began to notice patterns in both regions that resembled her hometown. In There Is Nothing For You Here, Hill presents a theory that suggests saving democracy is a matter of expanding opportunities.
