I read 13 books in October!
Hemlock & Silver by T. Kingfisher = dark fantasy stand-out with a great unconventional protagonist.
The Shape of Thunder by Jasmine Warga = middle school book club's pick and prompted perhaps the best discussions in club history.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

Monthly Reading - Sept. Edition

You can tell it's back-to-school time because all my books are MG/YA. (Just slower with adult books right now)

Standouts:
Safiyyah's War - fresh WWII HF
The Tenth Mistake of Hank Hooperman - all the feels
Next Stop - GN that took a surprisingly deep turn
