This book was absolutely amazing and I loved every second of reading it. I loved reading it so much and the representation for the LGBTQ+ spectrum was stunning.
Olivia is such an amazing character and creepily like me, we have the same name and we also love Pride and Prejudice and we both like to take on too much work and burn ourselves out. I loved seeing myself in a character and I think that it just made it all the more enjoyable for me to read, plus it was super meaningful for me. And of course, I loved seeing the rest of The Paper & Hearts Society again in addition to meeting all of the new characters that entered the story. All of the characters were so wonderful and I just absolutely loved them all so much.
The plot was wonderful, I loved following the bookish escapades that everyone got up to across the book. I just loved the fact that not only was this about books it was also about being proud of who you are and campaigning for what you think is right. It just added another extra layer to the story and I loved that plotline. This book dealt with real issues whilst being whimsical and fun too. I just loved this book so much and I think that everyone should read it.
This book was just so brilliant and I cannot wait to read the next installment in this story!

The writing style was very winey, the teenagers didn't feel realistic, the writing style also tended to overexplain.

I got this without realising it was book 2 of the series
But i still was able to connect to these characters to this group of friends
This is such an important topic that this is happening in the US and also parts of the UK. I am sobbing at seeing myself in a book like this. Book loving peeps who come together to stop making it difficult for students to get LGBTQIA+ Books. If i had had a group of friends like this when i was younger, the stuff we could have achieved

So cute! I really hope there’s another instalment. Maybe a read with pride spin off?

I really liked this book! I absolutely loved being back with these characters and having a different POV, Olivia instead of Tabby, because I loved her character in the first book! I also loved the new characters and Saffy was the sweetest and probably my favourite. But to be honest I mostly loved seeing Ed, Tabby, Henry and Cassie! Read With Pride is also really cool and I loved all the characters stories and experiences I found it really cool and emotional but important. Olivia is such an inspiration character and she is amazing! So are ALL of the other characters in the book! I can’t wait for Book 3!
