I'm grateful the school purchased 238 copies of Louder Than Hunger. Every copy was given away to students and teachers!!!
It will take me a bit to fully process today. I returned to Oak Forest HS today for a school visit. The high school Jake attends in Louder Than Hunger. The high school I graduated from in 1999. It was an AMAZING day! It was an emotional day! Thank you, students, @bookdropdead.bsky.social, & Amanda!

Wow! What a wild ride! The Girls in the Walls is a middle grade novel in verse unlike about I’ve ever read. I’m so excited to see what kids think about this one. Watching this family try to navigate generations of trauma is both heart breaking and captivating. Highly recommend! Book drops 5/20/25.
