Finished Looking for Alaska and wow was that a roller coaster. Genuinely not sure how I feel about it now that it’s over though…. #SLIS55323 UHCL_SLIS

Although John Green’s Looking for Alaska was on the banned book list, give it a read... Miles Halter takes you on quite a journey. #55322 UHCL_SLIS

I watched #HiddenFigures w/ my 12-year old last night & she asked... When do we learn about this history in school? Good question, kid. Good question. Because we need to be teaching our children that a brilliant group of determined women - Black women - got the US into space!

I just read my first Manga, The Promised Neverland by Kaiu Shirai. It was definitely a new reading experience for me... it seems I will have to read the next one to find out more 😊 UHCL_SLIS #55324

This week’s read is The Promised Neverland! My kids and their friends are excited and jealous to hear I get to read manga in my classes! UHCL_SLIS #SLIS55324

Finished The Promise never land, onto Two boys kissing. What a genre jump ! UHCL_SLIS #slis553324

Just finished Two Boys Kissing by David Levithan. It was a book I picked up and put down a couple of times but I am so glad I read it.....It is interestingly told from the perspective of gay men who have died from AIDS offering words of hope to the future #SLIS_55325 UHCL_SLIS

This week our book is Two Boys Kissing by David Levithan for my YA Literature class, wow I was shocked! This book is great to spread acceptance awareness. My heart broke for Cooper💔UHCL_SLIS #SLIS55325

Loved reading Two Boys Reading. Such a great book. Didn’t expect it to be so complex and provide such insight but glad it did. UHCL_SLIS #SLIS55352

Y’all. The news is out. THE OBAMAS are adapting BLACKOUT for film AND TV!! 😱 Me and the ladies couldn’t be more thrilled!!! @brownbookworm @getnicced Ashley Woodfolk Tiffany D. Jackson Nicola updates

I’m currently reading Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children. It is peculiar but interesting.. I love the use of old photos found to create the story. #SLIS55325 ⁦UHCL_SLIS⁩

What fantasy universe would you most love to inhabit? #SFFWeek

2 more weeks to go of the first semester! Feeling like a kick butt and could use a nap in the same breath. UHCL_SLIS #slis55326

Free Lunch by Rex Ogle by far one of my favorite books to read for Young Adult Literature class 😊 I can see how many students will be able to relate to the many issues within the story and feel the HOPE that immolates. #SLIS55327 UHCL_SLIS

UHCL_SLIS #SLIS55327 Just finished Free Lunch by Rex Ogle. What an important story that everyone needs to read! This would help people not judge a book by its cover.

Free lunch was a great book. It left me really thinking about the kiddos that need more and support from school staff. #SLIS55327 UHCL_SLIS

Almost every single poem took my breath away. Black women, people who love Black women, teachers of Black women, people who are going to be Black women: Read this book of poems. Mans, Jasmine King is everything.

My first semester in the librarian masters program has come to an end.. Through YA literature and Children’s Literature I have become familiar with many genres, authors and titles that will be so beneficial as a future librarian.... #SLIS55328 UHCL_SLIS
