Danika reviews Star-Crossed by Barbara Dee
This has been a much-anticipated read for me!

Kelley O’Brien reviews Camp Rewind by Meghan O’Brien
I’ve been excited to read Meghan O’Brien’s Camp Rewind since I first read the synopsis last year. A book about two women of color dealing with very real and contemporary problems like social anxiety and online harassment and misogyny? Sign me right up! Despite my excitement for the book, it somehow got pushed back dueRead More
