Welcome back to The Community Library! The end of another month is upon us, so what did you all think of February’s book club pick, Grown by Tiffany D. Jackson? I loved it – such a powerful story about music, fame and power. In this episode I discuss my thoughts, and I also talk about some of the discussion topics you suggested on Instagram!

Our book club pick for March is Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi (vol. 1 only). This is a YA graphic novel about the author’s experience growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. I’ll be discussing this on the 28th of March with my good friend (and graphic-novel-lover) Maija. I hope you read along with us!
