PLUS, librarians are so helpful and will always help with order requests. Doing this, you get to read a brand new copy for free, the title becomes available in your community library, and the author still benefits.
I am not going to dive into the back and forth on piracy. I have a side, you can guess what it is.

But I will say one thing: if you get the books from your library, you're still not paying for it and the author does get compensated.

OBaaT follows Anna, a foster child whose friends are her only true family, as she navigates taking on bullies. Only to reluctantly recognize that the worst bully of all is their teacher.

It would be pretty cool if we all collectively pledged to support indie bookshops whenever/however we could 💕

Depending on budget & accessibility, that could look like visiting them in person, leaving a review, amplifying their social posts, giving gift cards, divesting from mega retailers, etc.

“Likeable characters and dislikable antagonists (as they should be). Illuminating in many ways and something the young adults (and the adults who love them) should read.”

“This is an excellent book. It contains some difficult subjects but are very well handled. Bullying is everywhere and needs to be talked about. We need more competent and compassionate resources for victims.”

We believe books can bend the arc of history toward justice.

In a publishing world dominated by corporate consolidation, our independence is both a promise and a practice: to publish courageously, to think critically, and to keep the space for radical imagination alive.

OBaaT by Alice Vachss is an excellent book. I highly recommended it.
What gets you through the toughest of times?

For Anna in OBaaT, it is shelter dogs and friends that become chosen family.
