Not gonna post a link, because this doesn't feel like that kind of space....but if on "Giving Tuesday" you're wanting to give books to low-income kids in Appalachia, here's your spot: Appalachian Literacy Initiative, readappalachian.org.
OK that linked and I don't know why. Sorry.

Franklin's MAGA mayoral candidate Gabrielle Hanson poses with self-proclaimed neo-Nazi in new post A photo posted Tuesday on the Telegram social media app shows controversial Franklin mayoral candidate Gabrielle Hanson posing with a self-proclaimed neo-Nazi.

Here is a Tennessee MAGA mayoral candidate posing with a Nazi.

Not just any Nazi, but Sean Kaufmann.

The Nazi I watched sharing bombmaking plans in terror Telegram channels.

Receipts below.

#MiddleGrade I don't tend to curse myself, so it doesn't usually show up in my books. But I also really love the way @kimbbbradley.bsky.social approaches language in Fighting Words.
