Powrie is fantastic at writing about very important topics in a way that is completely accessible for a YA and younger teen audience. If I were to describe this book series in one word, it would be wholesome. Sometimes, when you’re in too deep, it’s up to your friends to look out for you… With two book clubs to run, exams to prepare for, and a girlfriend, just how long will it be before Olivia burns out? After all, creating a book club and trying to get the #ReadWithPride hashtag to get noticed is going to take a lot of energy. Luckily, she’s the mastermind behind The Paper & Hearts Society book club, and she knows exactly what to do: start a new club, find ways of evading the system, and change the policy for good! Olivia is distraught – she’s demisexual and knows how important it is for all readers to see themselves represented. But when a parent complains about LGBTQ+ content in one of the books, the library implements a new policy for withdrawing books. Olivia Santos is excited for her last year at secondary school. *Trigger Warnings – homophobia, mental health, burnout* I would like to thank the publishers Hachette, and the author, Lucy Powrie. All opinions are my own and are not influenced by receiving a gifted copy of this book in any way. I received an arc of this book from the publishers Hachette in exchange for an honest review.
