Book Rating
Body positivity has reached new heights lately, but Ashley Graham has been fighting to be seen as a plus size model for years. Her journey from Nebraska to Sports Illustrated cover is bumpy, relatable, and honest. It's not the best memoir I've ever read, but Ashley Graham is inspiring and positive. It's a good read.

"Gorilla Biscuits are kind of cheesy, in a way, but at the same time they totally crystallized the archetypal hardcore sound and attitude. It's kind of hard to resist, in the end, the energy and positivity of the whole thing; I defy any real hardcore kid to not run around the room in a circle, finger-pointing, and singing along to "Big Mouth."

Leah on the Off Beat
Leah is a spin-off in the Simon vs. the Homosapian Agenda world. Pleasant surprise, Leah has been hiding the fact that she is bi from everyone. Now that we see inside her head we can understand her point of view as she goes through her senior year, and everything is changing.

My Preferred Social Media
Instagram is my social media of choice. I love seeing and discovering beautiful pictures from all over the world, as well as taking quick snaps to share. The only reason I didn't rate it higher is because of the algorithm/non chronological timeline can muddy how and when you see things, which is unfortunate. Its still fun though.

“Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda”

Lived up to its hype! As far as a contemporary teen novel reads this one was nearly off the charts the plot was not only believable but it was also incredibly relateable! Obviously I’m not a 17 year old gay high school struggling to come out but I still managed to relate to Simon and Blue perfectly! It’s positivity and bright outlook makes it the best novel to support our lgbt community! 5 starts, a hands down must read!

A story about loving yourself even when society tells you not to. Willowdean is a plus size girl and the daughter of a pageant queen. She lives in contrast to her mother who lives based on appearances. Will decides to enter a beauty pageant as a form of protest to the perceived perfection they target and learns a lot about herself, friendship, and family. The message of body positivity and loving yourself/embracing yourself for who you are is very heartwarming. One worth rewatching.
