Child Drama, and also Jeff. This book could have gotten a lot more Gender than it did but mostly just showed the reality of How Kids Are, which is not particularly Gender, so that was interesting and cool. Two stars due to Child Drama. Also, Jeff bores me.
I LOVE LOVE LOVED this book. I love time loops and I love alternate universes and I loved the exploration of that in this book, and I loved our main characters and I even loved the ending, even though it was kind of fucked up — but in a very deserving way, I think! In […]

Honestly I kind of wish this book were like, a hundred pages longer. Not just because I wanted more, but also because I wanted this book to just be drawn out a little longer. I wanted to kind of wallow in a lot more moments, but I guess that’s what rereading is for. This young […]
Review once again by my roommate because I DNF’d this one thirty pages in, realizing that I actually hate myth retellings?? I received this at no cost from NetGalley, but my roommate checked it out of the library. (Can I count this for my library challenge? Hmm.) i really enjoyed wrath goddess sing and read […]

It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, which is hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine. I first […]
I enjoyed this book a lot! I think Maggie, who is the main character, is my favorite character. I really enjoyed her voice throughout the novel. I wasn’t super into or attached to any of the side characters. This is a quick and easy read. Also, a love triangle that I was genuinely invested in! […]
I actually got this book through a blog tour, which I’ve never done before and I was very excited to participate in! So this post gets specific thanks to Algonquin Books’ publicist for finding me and inviting me — obviously I am Pleased As Punch about it. This is a queer graphic novel in three […]
This is a book all about pride flags, written for kids. The illustrations are friendly and quite lovely, and include a diverse range of people. The information in the book is easy to understand, but glosses over the unpleasant and divisive parts of LGBTQIA+ history; why did we need our own flags? What exactly was […]
This is a book of queer short stories; some of them I really enjoyed, some of them I felt kind of weird about. Conklin uses proses like a knife, but the sharpness of the knife depends on the short story. These aren’t like a lot of the queer lit on the marketplace now (which is […]
