This was hard, but I love Heartstopper too much not to pick it, both the comics and the TV series

Forgot to post but I‘ve been taking reading recommendations from my 6th graders and one of them lent me her copy of Heartstopper Vol. 2 😭 I the read the whole thing during one of my lunch periods before break. (No, I did not read Vol. 1 lol) In return, I lent her a copy of Snapdragon, another graphic novel w/ LGBTQ+ characters, & she messaged me on Google Classroom that she‘s loving it so far 🥹
@Lesliereadsalot Thank you so much for this #jolabokaflodswap ! I haven‘t heard of this book, but I think I‘m going to like it. Thanks for the hot chocolate bombs and the chocolate W (I totally see it). Happy Holidays!
And thanks @MaleficentBookDragon for an awesome swap!
Loved it!! Sweet book about two HS boys who are quite opposite; one closed down and the other very open and honest but both very good souls. #MexicanAmerican #Texas
Thank you so much for the #jolabokaflodswap @LMJenkins !! I‘m glad to add another frequently banned book to my shelf! I love that the colors of the candy wrappers sort of match the book cover ☺️
And thanks @MaleficentBookDragon for hosting this amazing swap once again!
HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVE AND HAPPY JOLABOKAFLOD, LITTENS! ❤️💚❤️💚❤️
Thank you SO much, Shannon! I'm so excited about this book! I'm going to dive into it immediately! And the chocolate looks super yummy too! 🤭💕 Thank you, thank you, thank you!

@TheLudicReader - thank you for my WONDERFUL swap package!! It was wrapped beautifully! I love all of the treats and cannot wait to start the books. The calendar is adorable! Thank you dear friend and Merry Christmas!!!
I listened to this memoir of transition while wrapping presents. Olympia helped 😼(by clawing all the ribbons and biting the paper!)
This was on my radar and moved it up when it made the #NYTTop10 of 2024. This memoir covers Lucy‘s origin story, her parents, and alternates between past and present, describing her feelings when using photo filter apps. Gender identity is tangled up in all of Santes other identities: writer, partner.
Some library holds that I put in so long ago that I‘d forgotten about them came through… and this was one of them! I don‘t remember why I requested it - but it was fun read (possibly would have been more fun if I‘d been to Youth Group or watched Buffy in my formative years).
The have you heard of Smash Mouth line made me laugh.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for my December #Roll100 pick.
After the unexpected loss of their friend, five young adults make a pact to give one another “living funerals”. Over the course of 20ish years, the friends come together at various life stages to uphold their promise to one another.
This was moving, emotional, and struck a chord. Beautiful.
