With the nascent Seattle grunge scene as a backdrop, Haupt delivers a poignant story of two kids with an enviable friendship - but life has a way of twisting stories. I found it to be a very realistic account of two intertwined lives. I read the book in two days because I needed to know what happened to Zane & Skye. [Blanca]
Navigating relationships of all kinds is hard. This book has great advice. Written by queer Instagram legend @xenaworrierprincess [Karen]
This important new book explores the relationship between Black and Native struggles for freedom and also redefines indigeneity in early America. Part of the exceptional Revisioning History Series, this book provides historical context for conversations increasingly happening nowadays. [sweet pea]
Hear me out! Yes, this book is dark, but the darkness comes from what the characters are, not who they are. In this chase, Adam and his brothers are psychopaths who kill evil people, but are very nice otherwise. There's a reason why this book is all over Tik Tok. Adam and Noah are cute, there's a dope mystery, and hot smut - what more do you want? [Danielle]
A sharp, darkly funny social satire focused on two friends who start a cult for 'problematic' men. The book also takes aim at the wellness industrial complex and more. At once absurd and way to real, I think Alex McElroy's debut novel is brilliant and I can't wait to see what they write next! [Adrienne]
This book follows the life of Ruthie - growing up in the forest of a small town in Montana - watching the town change as it gets developed and invaded by vacationers. It's very normal until the end. This book's ending is not normal, nor typical - so brace yourself. Also, the style is fantastic! [Blanca]
I never knew a cherry lime icebox cake would fit with the Page of Swords, but this witchy, tarot-based cookbook proves it. With a list of magical ingredients and tarot instructions, you'll be pulling cards for dinner in no time. [Karen]
This book explores disability justice through the performance art activism of Sins Invalid, a San Francisco area based collective. Centering disabled, queer, trans, BIPOC voices, their work gives us an intersectional framework of how we can re-envision a society that includes everyone. [sweet pea]
I grew up watching Taxi Cab Confessions. I love being a voyeur and I love hearing other people's stories/lived experiences - it's how I learn everything! If you're a curious person, like me, READ THIS! [Jess]
If you loved Dani, you are going to adore her sister Eve (and, of course, Jacob). This book is funny, heartfelt, and has great plus-size and autism representation. This is probabably my favorite of the series. [Danielle]
