Oh gosh, just steamed through this tale of a activist student and a goodie two shoes who accidentally team up to draw attention to some issues in the school and maybe, oops, fall in love on the process.

I listened to this whole YA queer romance today while I was packing boxes in the kids‘ rooms (the big move is next week!).
It was super cute, and I love how the girls smashed the patriarchy at their posh private school (and how racism was called out as well).
Plus Australian accents on audio! 😍 #pridemonth #queerfiction
pickI loved Benjamin Hoff's short introduction/biography of Opal Whiteley. Wow! How this child's / young woman's talent, voice and brilliant mind were squelched by her environment and the time is horrific. Who knows what she could have become if she had lived today. Her diary is extraordinary, but not for me. Still, a beautiful book that should be read.
Anyone else listen to Revisionist History? This week's episode talks about Howard Hughes and the great hoax ALMOST pulled off by Clifford Irving. To say the amount of twists is substantial in this episode is doing this story a disservice. A must listen. #MalcolmGladwell
pickReadable, entertaining and frequently hilarious. Why do they do it? For the hell of it, often. And for money, of course. And often simply because they can.
pickRomantic comedies aren‘t my usual fare, yet I thoroughly enjoyed this Australian YA novel set in an exclusive high school in Sydney. An unlikely pair of lesbian teens use pranks to battle sexual harassment, homophobia and racism at their school, under the guise of a fabricated student. Alternating voices in the storyline are read by two #audiobook narrators. Uplifting #LGBTQ #YA #OzAuthor
I knew this would be ridiculous before I started it, but just how ridiculous was something I greatly underestimated. How can people still believe this in 2019?! 🤬🤬🤬
Hard to believe this can still be found in the non-fiction section of some libraries...
