I want to send a special thank you again to my book buddy and twin, Brittany The Book Guru, for encouraging me to write about diversity in novels, and start this series. Thank you so much for everything, and I know I tell you that every single day, but I can’t tell you that enough.

We are like Serena and Blair when they aren’t enemies. The best team ever.

So as you probably saw from the title of this post, I’m talking about the latest book that I read: S.T.A.G.S. by M. A. Bennett. If you want to read a little bit of my review, click on the title here. In this post, I’m going to have some spoilers because I had a lot of feelings about this book and just how these kids would treat people that weren’t like them, not just poor, but also a different race, a different skin color.

Welcome to a new discussion series that I will periodically do when I see something come through my feed – thank you to Brittany for inspiring me to start this, by the way! This is why you’re my book buddy.
