Behold the Dreamers is one of the best books I’ve read in a long, long time. I am beyond grateful I visited Semicolon Bookstore and discovered so many amazing and underrated books.

You and Me and Us – Alison Hammer
I’m not sure where to start with this one, other than You and Me and Us is one of the most emotional yet beautiful books I’ve read in a long time. I want to preface by saying – this book may be highly sensitive and triggering for someone who has lost a parent or spouse to cancer, or…
