Thanks so much for alerting me to that TIME article! This paragraph gave me chills:
“What we want instead are gentler, less stressful romances. And the more popular they become, the more that popularity looks like a red flag for society at large and female audiences in particular. Why would anyone need to escape into a story where lifestyles are comfortable, relationships are respectful, women are financially independent, and mental health is paramount if that was already their reality—or even an achievable goal? It isn’t such a wholesome thought.”
My boys both loved preschool so much, I hope Louise has the best time!! I'm so excited to see what books make your fall reading guide- I think I'm heading into fall reading now, there's so many books that look so good
