My goal for the rest of September is to make serious progress on my library pile, because I have, once again, let it get totally out of control. But if most of them are even half as good as this one is so far, it‘ll be a piece of cake. 💖 #thepoetx #elizabethacevedo
Starting off the Scallywagathon with this! Hour one down!

To all the teachers lighting fires: of self-kindness, of revelation, of revolution. 🔥❤️🔥 #thepoetx #elizabethacevedo
“If I was her kid, Medusa would tell me her secrets: / how it is that her looks stop men / in their tracks why they still keep on coming. / How she outmaneuvers them when they do.” Maybe the 10th time #ElizabethAcevedo pierced my heart in the first 50 pages of #ThePoetX #poetry #narrativepoetry #YA
Book 13 of 2018: Probably my second favorite book I‘ve read this year!!
“My parents probably wanted a girl who would sit in the pews wearing pretty florals and a soft smile. They got combat boots and a mouth silent until it‘s sharp as an island machete.” #ElizabethAcevedo #ThePoetX
Damn this book is so intense and spot on. Such beautiful poetry! #verse #versenovels #youngadult #thepoetx
