Thanks @littletigeruk.bsky.social @youthlibrarygroup.bsky.social

#SadGirlHours by @annazoequirke.bsky.social looks fantastic, can't wait to see how #SAD is woven into the story ❤️

Two white girls lie side by side on top of a bed, they are looking at each other and smiling. One has brown hair in a straight bob and glasses, and is lying on their side, with a book behind them. The other has long curly yellow hair and is lying on her back. Sun streams through the closed blinds behind them, there are books, mugs of tea and plants on the windowsill and on shelves to the left. The colour scheme is warm: browns, oranges, and dark red.
