I agree with what this piece says Skribbl IO. I like how you gave a lot of different points of view.
I have been working in a middle school library for six years now and these lists are exactly what I need when parents come in asking for something that will actually hold their kid's attention without being garbage. What strikes me about this particular group is how many of them deal with difficult histories and identities in ways that feel honest rather than didactic, especially The Life and Crimes of Hoodie Rosen which sparked some really thoughtful conversations in our after school book club.

This is such a refreshing take on the subject! I’ve been on the lookout for a guide this comprehensive for a while.

It is so inspiring to see such an incredible "Best of 2022" list, especially for someone who loves discovering new literature!

The "Best of 2022" lists are such a great way to wrap up the year!

But then I realised that the work I put in on my own was more rewarding. Sometimes, you just need to push through the hard parts to see the value in your effort.
