Having fled a traditional, stifling, upper class family, young adult Trey owns his newly claimed freedom, regularly visiting bars and bathhouses (where he meets Bayard Rustin), volunteering at an illegal AIDS hospice house, organizing a successful rent strike against his landlord, Fred Trump, and co-founding ACT UP. It’s equal parts fun and sad and infuriating and inspiring. Plus you’ll get a serious history lesson through its many footnotes. Loved it. -Krystal Show less

I appreciate Straub's honest and realistic characters. Alice isn't perfect, and I didn't really like her at first. Usually I need to like the main character to make it through a story. But through her reflections and her ability to go back and try different things, I came to admire her for her desire to figure out what was really important to her: her father who raised her on his own and her best friends, Sam, who is always there for her. Alice's ability to time travel is a mash up of Peggy Sue, Groundhog Day, and the Wardrobe. This story is ultimately about child-parent relations, "Why was it so hard to see that, how close generations where? That children and their parents were companions through life. -Sarah Show less

Like Shuggie Bain, Young Mungo takes place in a poor Glasgow neighborhood filled with absolutely unforgettable characters- some for worse but some for better, including Mungo, a Protestant, and James, a Catholic. Each teen has endured many difficulties in their short lives, a commonality, along with their shared fascination in James’ racing pigeons, that creates love and sanctuary in the midst of unrelenting hardship, sectarian violence, hyper masculinity, and extreme homophobia. When Mungo finds himself in an unsafe situation at the hands of his alcoholic mother, he needs to muster strength and determination to survive- for himself and for James. Be prepared: this is a sad, gut punch of a read. But it is masterful, and even though Stuart has only two books to his name at this point, I feel confident saying he’s one of my favorite authors. I can't wait to see what's next. -Krystal Show less

Needing profitable work to pay off student loans and being unable to find it in her native Nova Scotia, Kate Beaton moved thousands of miles to work in the oil fields of Alberta. Women workers were extremely rare (outnumbered approximately 50 to 1), and she dealt with persistent, disgusting sexism, harassment, and worse. Should it have been that way? Absolutely not. But it was, and she handled it with an unshowy strength that inspired me. I also appreciated her recognition of a complicated bigger picture, how people need the work despite its isolated location far from family, friends, and home or negative environmental impacts. She shows that the consequences are near and far reaching alike. -Krystal Show less

While this book may feel less weighty than the previous installments, Nona’s POV captures a childlike innocence that I found so refreshing and that adds an element of mystery in trying to understand what’s going on in the wider world. -Carrie Show less
