[aisle] Mob Mentality in YA lit

I love reader’s advisory – it’s my favorite part of the job – but working remotely is killing my mental health and I’m drawing a lot of blanks lately.  Does anyone have any good suggestions on books that focus on characters struggling with mob mentality and morality?  I’m thinking along the lines of The Wave by Todd Strasser, only more current. How people are drawn into things and go along with the crowd, if you will.

Thank you, fellow librarians. 😊

Subject: Re: [aisle] Thinglink- Examples

ThingLink from video-- https://www.thinglink.com/scene/1364316819258605573
Also, Call Me Guero is a novel in verse. I said it was a graphic novel in the video-- I guess I just remembered it was an alternate format.

Here is the video I threw together. https://www.loom.com/share/b0460667c35a40189b2f869bf69109e2

I'll finish editing the Thing Link in it and share that as well.

This is very much my situation, too! I'll make a quick video this weekend where I make a Thinglink and share it on the listserv. I'm currently using the free version and I feel like it's pretty good for a beginner. I'll be making more of these anyway, so I'll just record myself and explain a little in a video while I'm doing it.

Hello-
I am new to all this virtual stuff but I wanted to let you know that your thinglink book stacks are great. Could you tell me if you generated these in the free version or the paid premium version for teachers? When you get started are there good instructions? Does it take long to develop these?

 I am a solo librarian, no aides etc.  with no real IT dept. (1 gentleman for the district and his purpose is to keep hardware and internet running). I admit, I am as bad as the student sometimes- it is easier to ask a question but I suppose there is information about this or some how to's on You Tube.

Thanks though for any information you can give me.

I asked a while ago about links on pictures because I was unable to remember Thinglink. Here are my quick examples. As things slow down, I'll plan to make normal book displays with similar links on the books, probably with book trailers, etc linked.

Quick and simple to put together.
