Welcome to my weird world!
If we have more books like this for people to fawn over and delight with, we will be having a future generation of considerate, loving and intelligent kids. No wonder book bans are so big right now. There are three boys in this cover, but the narrator is the one in the jersey, Ezra Miller.... Continue Reading →
Let me put this out there first; everyone in this book is a sweetheart. So if you are looking for a very down-to-earth book, this is it. But of course read What If It’s Us first. But then you might need a breather before this one. Cause these are loooooong romance books. Two years ago,... Continue Reading →
Hayley Kiyoko’s fans refer to her as Lesbian Jesus, and considering how down-to-earth this book of hers is, plus the simply good and proud vibes I get from her whenever I see her on screen, I might really have been missing out. Nine years ago, Kiyoko made a song with the same name, plus a... Continue Reading →
I’ll be thinking about this book for a long time, and probably associating it with some decisions I make for myself. Henry Denton is a teenager from a rather troublesome part of Florida. I mean, before everywhere of Florida became a cesspool thanks to DeSantis. He has a mother with a waitressing job she hates... Continue Reading →
I love social justice books. We really need them right now. This Book Won’t Burn is from Samira Ahmed, an author who deserves to be looked up to, by authors and advocates alike.

His debut novel The Love Interest was a wonderful surprise, a romantic thrill ride with a satisfying ending and a feeling... Continue Reading →

But I also have to give it the title of worst I've read this year, and I have no joy giving that title to an author who shares... Continue Reading →
I sometimes wonder how Alice Oseman feels about the fact her debut novel about a sad teenage girl got some very good attention, but her spin-off graphic novel series about the character's little brother and boyfriend are what catapulted her into the title of one of the best and most important young-adult writers of our...

If you're looking for a sweet romance, high-school or otherwise, with rather angelic people finding happiness and overcoming the hardships faced against those who oppose their love, Fifteen Hundred Miles From The Sun is a fantastic option for you. Julian Luna is a 12th-grade soccer player who's, let's see here, vegetarian yet knows where to... Continue Reading →
When I started The House In The Cerulean Sea, I was just starting my new job. Such ironic timing. The big hero of this book is a man named Linus Baker who started working for DICOMY when he was my age today. DICOMY is Department In Charge of Magical Youth. There’s also a DICOMA, for...
