It‘s another title by Queen Judy Blume for Episode 68 of my podcast, and I couldn‘t be happier to have Caroline Moss (of Hey Ladies! fame) to discuss it with me. Tune in to today‘s ep to hear us chat about 1987‘s Just as Long as We‘re Together and all things friends, family, trios, body image, and Richard Gere posters. 👯♀️ Link to listen in bio!
Just as Long as We‘re Together, Young Readers List, young adult fiction, author study. This book is based on themes best friends Stephanie, Rachel and Allison who are best friends since second grade. They tell each other everything the good and the bad. They share their childhood crush Jeremy, the cutest boy in Junior High. This is an adorable book that many young girls can relate to.

#LiteraryLuck day 21 Do you Remember
I was not sure what book to choose for this prompt, so I decided to go with something nostalgic.
I did not actually read much Judy Blume as a kid, but this is the first of her books I read, and it is just so good! I remember being in awe at how well Blume actually understood teens/pre teens.
I still think nobody does it better.

That moment when your toddler douses your 9 year old's Judy Blume with seltzer... 😐
It‘s #sundaysurvey time! Repost with your answers & tag me 👌🏻☺️
1. Neil Gaiman & Laini Taylor — even though I sadly DNFd her last book, I think they would write something amazing together!
2. Just As Long As We‘re Together by Judy Blume
3. I‘d love to learn how to do cross-stitch so I could make snarky, curse-laden ones as gifts 😜
4. 40 miles from the hospital, about 27 from the house we lived in my whole childhood
Hey all! I figured for my #firstpost I would post my all time favorite book. My original copy is from 1993 or 1994, and my parents have gotten me two newer copies as gifts over the years. As you can see, my original no longer has the top cover (it was the yellow cover), and the pages are swollen and yellow. I do have Here's To You, Rachel Robinson, but only one copy of that (it's not as good, haha). ;)
When I moved across the country a few years ago I had to get rid of so much, leaving me with very few items from my childhood. I held onto this book though - I must have read it at least a dozen times as a pre-teen, and having the inscription from my mom means so much as we lost her almost a decade ago. I owe my love of reading to her, and she loved to gift us books “just because”. 📚❤️

My first thought for #youremybestfriend . Funnily, when I looked this up on Litsy, I used this book four months ago for another photo challenge!
Blume addresses friendship and the inclusion of others - what happens when a new girl moves into He neighborhood, and your once best friend status becomes a group of three? #rocktober
One of my favorite books when I was a kid. I found this image on Wikipedia; my particular copy is a different edition and still needs unpacked. Judy Blume captures adolescence issues so well. #startswithj #SplashIntoSummerReads
Day 7 of #RiotGrams: well-loved books! "I legit don't remember loving this book this hard but proof is in the taped binding." - Rioter @Kelly
It's Judy Blume month for book club! Everyone remembers Deenie, Are You There God, It's Me Margaret, and Forever, but this was one of my favorites growing up. I was happy to revisit it and it was amazing how many small details I remembered.
