Red White and Royal Blue

Red White and Royal Blue

Happy July, friends! I know I’ve been a bit absent on this blog in the last few months. Minus the book reviews. But I’m hoping that will change shortly! I miss writing recommendation posts, because that’s one of my absolute favorite things to do. It’s a big part of the reason why I’m a librarian. But! It’s the first Monday of the month, which means it’s time for a new playlist. This month is dedicated to Red, White, and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston!

I’ve already made playlists for Alex and Henry, but why not make a playlist for the entire book? There’s lots of great music mentioned in the book, and we just need these vibes for the current state of the world. I’m currently re-reading it, and it’s everything I needed at the moment. When everything feels like it’s falling apart, always turn to comfort reads and comfort shows. It’s what I do!
