05/22/2025

We’re blasting off into the cosmos for Q***r History 101’s June pick, and the ancestors are buckled in right beside us. 🪐 🚀

‘So Many Stars’ testifies. ✨ This book is not just a read, it’s a moment. A genre-breaking, time-jumping, soul-shaking celebration of q***r life in all its messy, radiant glory. Every chapter is a spell. Every voice — a whole revolution. This ain’t no rainbow capitalism, this is a pride protest. Pride as prayer. Pride as power. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ This is memory and what happens when you put our stories in our hands — raw, real, and rising. This is resistance.

Show up in our author Kiki and drop your questions for Caro in the Ask the Author section at .com. If your Q gets picked, you’ll get a shout-out worthy of the spotlight. 💬 📣 The stars are waiting. 📚✨

Funny, moving, addictive, and oh so real! 📚

A bighearted adult debut that is at once an ode to educators, a timely glimpse at today’s pressing school issues, and a tender character study, following a sprawling cast of teachers, administrators, and staff at a Texas high school.

At the heart of this unconventional workplace novel is a story of the power of human connection and of the joy of finding purpose in what it is we do every day.
