In this hilarious and thought-provoking contemporary teen standalone that's perfect for fans of Moxie, a bookworm finds a way to fight back when her school bans dozens of classic and meaningful books.

Clara Evans is horrified when she discovers her principal's "prohibited media" hit list. The iconic books on the list have been pulled from the library and aren't allowed anywhere on the school's premises. Students caught with the contraband will be sternly punished.

Many of these stories have changed Clara's life, so she's not going to sit back and watch while her draconian principal abuses his power. She's going to strike back.

So Clara starts an underground library in her locker, doing a shady trade in titles like Speak and The Chocolate War. But when one of the books she loves most is connected to a tragedy she never saw coming, Clara's forced to face her role in it.

Will she be able to make peace with her conflicting feelings, or is fighting for this noble cause too tough for her to bear?

hot and sweet and lovely
Format: Kindle
I loved this book. I've read it through maybe 3 times and keep going back to read specific passages. The relationship between Lina and Rose is so sweet and sexy, and I love the way their relationship changes and grows as they learn to trust each other. It was a delight to read. I highly recommend it.

🙌 body diversity 🙌
Format: Kindle
Body diversity for the win in this new twist on a classic vampire x human trope! A Rose For The Taking explores the arranged marriage between an under-appreciated “spinster” and a vampire magistrate stuck in her own grief. Beyond the budding romance, we are also given a piercing look into the struggle of vampire/human politics including classism, worker exploitation and policy reform. The spice was sparingly scattered throughout the book and was unfortunately almost exclusively one-sided…which continues to be my biggest pet peeve in these books. Overall, the steamy bits were effective and blended well into the storyline. No kink, mostly open door. Additionally, Trapp lovingly incorporates a realistically proportioned FMC, the grief of losing a spouse and the familial trauma of being tolerated only for what you bring to the table. Solid read and it definitely got me adding more of Trapp’s body of work to my TBR!
