TW: global warming, natural disasters
Limited by small book size, and not quite enough shared resources on where to start getting involved, but a brilliant call to arms for the importance of getting involved in saving our planet and our lost relationship with it.

TW: bullying, ableism
Note: I'm autistic/ADHD and non-binary
Bless this book's existence! Such charming and fun illustrations, such well covered topics, and such great writing!
I'm the same age as the author so I related on so many levels to her experiences and the timeline. This book is so accessible and inclusive, I especially loved the inclusion of gender diverse folks and the author's own queer experiences. Overall, a brilliant up-to-date knowledge of being autistic by a great #ownvoices author.

TW: death of a parent
A peaceful and provocative look into the world, and philosophy, of the Japanese tea ceremony. Savouring each moment of the now and letting the present be (and also guilty of making me crave wagashi).

TW: mentions of mysogynior, racism, abuse, colonialism, white fragility, trabsphobia,
Hey, us white folks! Every one of us who is a feminist or considers themselves allies NEEDS to read this book. Us white folk need to read it an take everything in, not get defensive.

TW: man touching a woman without concent, blood
What an out-n'-proud rough n' tumblin' queer comic this is! A historically accurate, western, lesbian love story. Only complaint is that it was too short! ❤️

TW: fat shaming
This absurd, funny, and often confusingly delicious, set of stories has held up incredibly well-even as I read it as an adult. Only critique is reading it now I see a few problematic fatphobic jokes* with the three Erics'.
*please note I read an old edition of this book so some jokes may have been updated (I hope)!

TW: death, murder, abuse, sexual abuse (off page), misogyny, suicide ideation, body mutilation, addiction and withdrawal
This was a bloody powerful cry of rage and justice, but also tender, raw, and vunerable. It lived up to the hype and then some. I can't say more. This is a thunderclap of a must-read.

TW: suicide ideation, suicide, abuse, kidnapping, death, murder, misogyny, mentions of rape
A historical mystery/thriller set in Korea in the 1400s. Great historical details and painfully honest family relationships and bonds are explored. This is a story of pain, grief, and discovery.

Incestuous rape, pregnancy, abortion
A deep heartache of a book, one that deals with many traumas of beautifully broken people. No punches are pulled, but my heart felt both warm and comforted reading it.

TW: homophobia, racism, slurs, abusive parent (verbal and physical)
Along with its great rep and celebration of culture and queerness, I really enjoyed that this book explored a healthy long-distance relationship. It was like re-living how my 12 year + relationship started!
