I am a fan of the cover because the bone skull and the little Sailor Moon symbol at the top. Also the intro or dedication to the gremlin girls was inspiring and I hope it encourages all the young girly readers to continue breaking the glass ceilings with bricks or whatevs else they can get their hands on. There are trigger warnings at the beginning of the book warning the reader about the content in her reading which included child abuse and assault.

This read is a grimm retelling story and is very dark and magical. The author, Margaret Owen, based this book on the "The Goose Girl" which I have never heard of or read. This retelling is also a series so there is another book after this one which is the first of the series. I'd also categorize this retelling as LGBTQ+ which I love. I have no idea what Goose Girl is about but the idea of there being a more woke version is AMAZING to me <3<3<3 Bring on the next book please!

I was so lucky to receive this book right around summer because it is the perfect summer read about friends and it's LGBTQ so put it on your list for June or any other month really <3 <3 <3 I love the cover too it is colorful and carnivals give me me that summer carefree vibe. Although it looks like a happy read, it's also sad that its the boys last adventure in Baltimore before Linus moves out of the state.

This wasn't the news Harrison expected because they had plans to navigate teenagehood to adulthood together. They plan a bucket list aka Ferris Bueller’s Day Off send off so they can have an epic day to remember. This is one of my favorite movies and I love the reference. Even though they are scared to grow up they include things they are afraid to do on the bucket list to do together before they are apart and it just the sweetest. They better keep in though through video chat!
