Review: We Are the Ants by Shaun David Hutchinson (Spoiler-Free)
This book was so good. I started a book club with a bunch of my real life friends, and this was the first book that we decided to read. I am very grateful that it was amazing.

Review: The Hearts We Sold by Emily Lloyd-Jones (Spoiler-Free)
The Hearts We Sold by Emily Lloyd-Jones broke my heart in the best way possible. It’s an exciting story about a girl who sold her heart to a demon in order to escape her abusive household.

I loved Molly as the main character and enjoyed most of the other characters as well. I really did not like the Cassie (her twin) but oh well.
Anyway, so I think there was a lot of really great rep in this book including characters that are, fat, pansexual, bisexual, gay/lesbian, black, and Korean-American.
