<p>UPDATED: Hey, we messed up. During this episode, we misgendered Casey McQuiston, who uses they/them pronouns. We also incorrectly used their books to open a discussion about women writing MM books—which is both unfair and wholly incorrect as Casey is non-binary. That’s not cool and we apologize. Their books One Last Stop and Red, White, and Royal Blue are favorites of ours. In the future we will do our due diligence and be sure to confirm author pronouns. We want to do right by both the authors who write the books we love and you, our listeners!</p> <p>Hey Baby Baddies! Happy Pride! This week, join Tiff, Lindsay, and Kelcie as they EMBRACE CHAOS and share a book brunch, chatting about all of their likes and dislikes featuring representation across the spectrum of novels they love.</p> <p>Link: https://booksandbaddies.show/episode/10-gay-book-brunch</p>
