This was a bit of a hot mess. I‘ve heard it described as the feminist version of Lord of the Flies. Confession: I am not a fan of Lord of the Flies, but I was compelled to read this. A dystopian-type novel with an infectious disease and an ending that didn‘t quite grab me, this for me could have been much better potential. This is a book on survival and how far someone will go for personal survival. Also, a book on friendship and blossoming love.
What a cute graphic novel about queer boys who love to bake! Read it with a yummy pastry because it‘ll definitely leave you with cravings. 🥖🥐🍞

Publisher First Second has been putting out some excellent LGBTQ+ 🏳️🌈 content, and Bloom is no exception.
Yes, Ari can be teen angsty and whiny at times, but I can really empathize with his situation. From an immigrant Greek family that can‘t afford to send him to college, Ari struggles to find his way post-high school graduation.
A sweet, slow-burn summer romance set in a MD 🏖 town that I highly recommend! Plus ALL the baked goods! 🧁🥖
Posting a book that gave me all the emotions @ljuliel
Read this one earlier this year for #lmpbc and I felt all the things! Happy, sad, and everything in between. Written for middle graders, it‘s an epistolary novel that follows the friendship developing between two girls whose gay dads start dating and decide to send them to summer camp together. I laughed and I cried so hard... it is undoubtedly a must read for all ages. ❤️😭😍
3.5 🌟
This sequel introduces new characters Becca and Steff. Steff thinks that Becca‘s mother was Molly Mauler. They do this by joining a new production called Who wants to be a Paniac? The story is predictable the entire way through.
Overall I enjoyed this read, but I didn‘t love it like I did the first one. I will still recommend book 1 to loads of people, but book 2 not so much.

Full Review on GR and LT
Some cute parts to this queer romance, but not a fan of all the cheating going on. Also, didn‘t quite understand some of the secondary characters-not well developed at all. BUT it is a queer romance between bi boy and a deaf boy, and the love story has nothing to do with that. They just are who they are and I really liked that. #bbrc #teenangst #sagaapproved #readmyowndamnbooks
