Deliver Us From Evie is the first book I ever read about LGBT+ issues. I snuck it out of my school library without signing my name (it was a small school!) and read it twice in a row, thrilled that there were whole books written about people like me for people my age (!!!). It’s awesome that there are authors like M.E. Kerr out there making it a little bit safer for LGBT+ youth to feel more comfortable about themselves and recognize that they aren’t alone! Let’s hear it for M.E. Kerr and all the other awesome authors writing books for LGBT+ youth audiences and let’s raise a glass of whatever we’re drinking (I am drinking Fanta like it is my job) to their continued success. (And then also to our continued success.)
