Mallory in Full Color

Very sweet middle grade story. I normally don't read middle grade books, but I always want to find books like these to recommend to the middle school kids coming into the library. 

Our MC Mallory is a great example of an evolving character, and learning to advocate/speak up for yourself. I think Mal is a very relatable character for the younger audience. 

Also I really liked the plot of the drag story time at the library! 

Thank you Quill Tree Books for the arc! 

This was sweet! I felt like teen me - ok and sometimes adult me - has a lot in common with Mal in that I can let other people take advantage of me at times in an effort to be nice/liked/keep the peace. I'm glad she started working on that in the end.

Also, the drag Queen story hour at the library plot also hit close to home.
