It’s June, so it’s officially Pride Month! I’ve got some stuff planned for the month, as well as a pretty ambitious TBR. But no one is surprised by that. I’m hosting a photo challenge over on Instagram, if you’d like to check that out. My reading is mostly going to be Pride and diverse author focused for the month. I bought some books from work and have compiled all the books that were sitting on my shelves. It’s going to be a great reading month, supported by an awesome Pride Month Playlist!
Since I couldn’t think of a specific character to do for this playlist, I thought I’d do a compilation kind of playlist. I’ve pulled together some of my favorite LGBTQ characters from YA books and have a song dedicated to each of them. I thought it would be something a little different and fun. Enjoy!
