We're Halfway Through Pride Month ...

... and I love seeing authors from the LGBTQ+ community being celebrated on Bookstagram! 

So many bookish creators are making a point of reading, buying and reviewing books by LGBTQ+ authors and it warms my heart. These wonderful humans are bucking trends and making a stand against the narrow minded people who have been trying to cancel Pride Month. I've seen creators call out bigots, name and shame them, and then carry on like it's an average Tuesday. 

It makes me proud to be a member of both communities. We need more allies and love in this world, not bigots and hate.
