Read with Pride by Lucy Powrie

5.0

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!
