Love love LOVE this book! It was timely, discussing issues like book banning, white nationalism, anti-Semitism, as well as other issues currently facing this country. While discussing serious topics, there was also some humor throughout the book. It was such a great reminder of the importance of education, of access to information, and of how much power books hold. Highly recommend to everyone!
My favorite quote was this one:
“I think your scared your children are going to open a book and discover the truth. They’ll realize the Holocaust happened and that slavery was worse than they ever imagined. They’ll find out that both men and women like sex, and gay and trans folks are just regular people. These seem to be the things you’re trying so hard to hide from them. Why is that?”
