Tadek and the Princess | Alexandra Rowland

Last morning reading alongside this lopsided cutie before I go to France! I‘d be a lot more excited if my Airbnb host, who insists on meeting guests instead of using a lockbox, would respond to me. As it is, I‘m stressed and angry and very much hoping I don‘t need to call on Airbnb‘s insurance policies to find another place on the quick. We‘ll see if I can concentrate well enough to tackle another chunk of this excellent novella.

xicanti I HEARD FROM HIM! Whew. 1d

Trans authors you should read! This is a very American based list. I think it is very cool and important to read Sarah McBride now that she is the first Trans senator! Read her life in her own words as you see her making headlines for wanting to use the toilet at work....
Others to read who I love:
Akwaeke Emezi - Vivek is my absolute fav
Imogen Binnie
Nicola Dinan
Janet Mock
Aiden Thomas

JamieArc Sarah McBride ❤️ My husband worked with her when he was working for the Human Rights Campaign. 2d
ChaoticMissAdventures @JamieArc great...now I am jealous of your husband 😂. I have been a huge fan of hers since I first started following her career in maybe 2016-17. Just an extraordinary person, what we need so badly in politics. 2d
BookmarkTavern Loved Cemetery Boys! 2d

ChaoticMissAdventures @BookmarkTavern yes!! Aiden lives in my town and I see him often at book events, he is so nice 😍 2d
BookmarkTavern Oh my gosh, I‘m so jealous! 2d
lil1inblue Vivek Oji was such an excellent book. 🩵 2d
Kristy_K I just bought Tomorrow Will Be Different! And this reminds me I‘ve been wanting to read Redefining Realness. 2d
ChaoticMissAdventures @Kristy_K I love Janet Mock, all of her books are very good. She is so impressive, and this first one of hers really tells you how she got to be where she is now (well 2014) I thought the book was very good. 1d
Suet624 Great post! Thank you. 💕 2h

Such a beautiful soul!
This is such an emotional rollercoaster. It was beautiful and heartbreaking, but also funny in places. I seriously wish we could stop policing children and labelling it “class disruption.” Children being themselves is not a disruption. It is honest. Maybe oddly, I‘m angry. I‘m so angry for this amazing human being, I‘m angry for other people living it right now, who are left with zero information about themselves and reality

GingerAntics because someone, somewhere is afraid of what isn‘t their lived experience. Don‘t even get me started on the teacher saying he would have been a slave owner. What the actual 🤬?! As an educator, I just don‘t see how in the hell those words could just slip out of someone‘s mouth. I guess we know what kind of person that teacher is. Those are the white people who make other white people ashamed to be white. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 3d
GingerAntics 🤦🏼‍♀️ It‘s long since time we did better - SO much better - by our children in this country and around the world. #GeorgeMJohnson #AllBoysArentBlue #LGBTQIA+ #BeautifulHumanity #readthis 3d

Leftcoastzen I thought it was excellent & powerful! 3d
GingerAntics @Leftcoastzen oh my god the emotional rollercoaster!!! He is such a story teller, and his family is a good model for everyone! More families need to be like this one. … and oh my god the teacher who said “if I was alive then I‘d probably have slaves, too.” WTLF?! 3d

In this installment a pair of famous footballers are on trial for rape. We follow our MC, Evan, as he takes stock of his life and how he ended up in this situation.

As always, Boyne makes us take a hard look at the consequences of life‘s choices, be it those that we make or those that have been made for us.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

On to Fire! 🔥

This was an absolute delight of a book with unbridled feral energy. My new comfort read.

I cannot recommend the audiobook enough. The voices are amazing and the narrator gives Avra the right amount of manic, racoon energy that brings him to life.

lil1inblue You had me at “unbridled feral energy.“ 😍 Stacked. 3d
PuddleJumper @lil1inblue 🤣🤣 I giggled out loud several times 3d
