American Dirt | Jeanine Cummins

This arrived today and I'm very excited to start it tonight! 😀📚💕 I've been following the controversy surrounding this book closely and I'm really looking forward to being able to form an opinion of my own through careful reading! 👍💕 I know Sandra Cisneros (whom I love and respect) praised it highly, which makes me happy. I also have a list of books on this topic written by Latino/Latina authors that I want to read once I'm done! #bookmail

marleed I‘ve been thinking about this controversy for days. I‘m extremely appreciative of the information to be aware of own voices, and realize I should learn about authors prior to reading a book. I just don‘t know where one draws the line on who can write a historical fictional story, and I don‘t want to participate in banning of books. I think I need to read this book and decide if it‘s a story I‘d recommend. 3d

Branwen @marleed That is exactly how I feel about it too! 💕 I appreciate and value everyone's feelings on the matter, but at the same time don't think it's right to censor the story in any way. In any case, I knew I really had to just actually read it for myself before I could weigh in on it intelligently. I will say that so far I'm really enjoying it. 3d

Professional_Book_Dragon I think a lot of it is not just that this is a white woman writing a Mexican narrative but it‘s the way she is writing. She reenforces a lot of stereotypes about Mexico within the book which hurts not only Mexicans but us as readers. I am really struggling through this novel right now. It is a good learning opportunity though as long as we keep these things in mind. 2d

Branwen @Professional_Book_Dragon Absolutely! 😀 I think it's really important to keep those things in mind while reading and understand that lots of people have different opinions, feelings, and viewpoints about it! 📚💕 2d

A Queen in Hiding | Sarah Kozloff

Look what arrived in the mail today! Whoo hoo! Book mail is the best mail! 😀📚💕 This is the first book in a new fantasy series that looks really promising!

I'm also really excited because the whole series (4 books total) is already written and each book will come out one month right after another! It's great to fall in love with a fantasy series that won't take 80 billion years to finish! *cough* George RR Martin *cough* 😂🤣🙊 #bookmail

This is nonfiction, which I admittedly don't read much, but this book just sounded so up my alley!
