Today I'm sharing the best book I read in March.
It was another good reading month, with a lot of 4- and 4.5-star reads! But of the 7 books I read this month, I had only one 5-star read, so that's my Best of the Bunch.
I decided to read
Snapdragon in a waiting room and I literally almost cried in front of a bunch of people MULTIPLE TIMES, y'all. It's a story of found family and embracing the things you love (even when they're unusual) and gender expression and magic. Even though the story jumps between times and places (e.g., a scene is happening and we skip to Snap telling her friend the last thing that happened), I didn't find it hard to follow — it was just like watching a film or TV show. I love books that have this kind of heart, and the graphic novel format just made it that much better. (Also I didn't have any trouble telling the order of the dialogue bubbles, which can be a real struggle with graphic novels.) Highly recommend this one, and I hope to read it with my kiddo as well.
