Kate’s comments from the CMLE Reading Challenge group.

One of the protagonists of the graphic novelEmpire State: A Love Story works in a library, though it is not really a major part of the story.

Annie recommended that I read The Hating Game and I'm glad I did.

A member of my book club chose The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society for this month and I enjoyed it immensely. In general, I tend to love epistolary novels.

I enjoyed Foolish Hearts and it has a primarily blue cover?

Courage Is Contagious: And Other Reasons to Be Grateful for Michelle Obama made me smile a lot. And cry. But mostly smile. It is essays and a pretty quick read. I recommend it.

I read Spellbook of the Lost and Found.

The protagonist of Mis(h)adra has epilepsy (as does the author/illustrator #ownvoices).

All the Crooked Saints is set in Colorado. The book was fairly heavy on the magical realism, and arguably it really could have been set in just about any state without changing the story much at all.

I love Daniel José Older. He is a New York EMT turned YA author and both his twitter and the way he talks to teenagers makes me really happy. I just read Shadowhouse Fall, the second in his Shadowshaper series.

I read Meet Cute: Some People Are Destined to Meet. With a title that long, it managed to fit in all four letters. It was an anthology, and as such I liked some of the stories better than others.
