First Second Books marked as first-second-publications Primates: The Fearless Science of Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey, and Biruté Galdikas by Jim Ottaviani (Goodreads Author)	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
One of the questions that we frequently get asked about this book is: is it nonfiction? The answer is: it’s difficult to tell! Primates is ostensibly a nonfiction biography about three different women who work with primates – Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey,...more

First Second Books added The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black (Goodreads Author)	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
This book? It is full of decisively taking responsibility for your own problems and figuring out solutions for them that you then take action on. That is one of my favorite tropes in books – I am not a huge fan of wibbling. What makes it even better is...more

First Second Books added Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell (Goodreads Author)	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Just finished FANGIRL, by ELEANOR & PARK author Rainbow Rowell. Eleanor & Park is basically the perfect novel but it's also a very intimate little book, very self-contained. This one is bigger and more ambitious in a lot of ways. I loved it....more

First Second Books added Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
In my quest to read more food-related fiction after discovering the genre through Lucy Knisley’s graphic novel Relish, I ended up reading Jonathan Safran Foer’s Eating Animals, which I think was not quite what I was aiming for in food-related fiction...more

First Second Books added American Terroir: Savoring the Flavors of Our Woods, Waters, and Fields by Rowan Jacobsen	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Ever since we published Lucy Knisley’s food-centric graphic novel _Relish_, I’ve been wanting to read more books about food, so Twitter recommended this one. (Thanks, Twitter!) So. My main problem with Rowan Jacobsen’s American Terroir is that now I w...more

First Second Books marked as first-second-publications Astronaut Academy: Re-entry by Dave Roman (Goodreads Author)	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Here's something you should know about this book: the cover is shiny. Like, really, really shiny. You can't tell in the picture, but it's actually gold! foil! So that's pretty exciting for us. The thing that Dave Roman's Astronaut Academy series remi...more
