The Girl Who Drank the Moon


The 2017 Newbery winner and now a 2017-2018 Bluebonnet Nominee is definitely one to read.  A high fantasy about a township with leaders that want to "imprison" their citizens with fear of leaving.  Annually they have made up a ritual of sacrificing the newest born child to a scary and evil witch.  You learn, in reality, the witch is just a kind 500 year old sole that wants what's best for these abandoned babies.
