Welcome to Litsy!

I've read a lot about this topic the last few years, so I thought this book wouldn't teach me anything new. Well, I was wrong. It's a a cute little book with great illustrations and Mardell manages to explain complicated things in an understandable way. I love that we get to know a lot of different people sharing their stories with us. It's perfect for Allies who want to know more, for Baby Queers and people who still want to learn more.

I put off reading this book for a long time because I figured it would be too sad. But #QueerBC made me pick it up & I was surprised how much I enjoyed it. Yes, there are heavy themes of death & grief, and the title doesn't lie. But overall the feeling of hope prevails. I loved the found family elements, and the way smaller interconnected stories were weaved throughout showing how our lives impact the world around us in ways we don't realize

Three siblings take a crash course through how not to handle holiday romances, and the punches keep coming. I read this over the summer and enjoyed it. Each character's story is interesting and well-paced, with a satisfying conclusion. I almost felt overwhelmed by so many things happening at once but it felt balanced enough to keep me going. Do read the content warnings. #LGBTQIA #Holdays #HolidayRomance

I finished this earlier in November, and I still have no words. Intriguing and emotional read.
