I'm cheating a little for this month and choosing one graphic novel, one adult nonfiction, and one fiction title for my outstanding book(s) because I had some fabulous reading material (including the secret kind that I can't tell you about). So here goes for the month:

This memoir is spectacular for its honesty and storytelling. Rosser grew up in West Philadelphia in a large single-parent family and discovered his love and talent for polo when his brother stumbled upon the Work to Ride program set up nearby. Rosser shares the discrimination he and his teammates faced as a Black team but also the resilience of a love of a larger community that wanted to see kids succeed.
I stayed up way past my bedtime to finish the finale to Lee's Montague Siblings trilogy because it had all of the spectacular action and adventure, wit and tenacity as the first two. It was a delightful end as you follow the much younger Montague sibling (who didn't know Monty and Felicity existed until the start of this book) on a fact-finding mission about his mother's death and the spyglass that she had once carried everywhere.
You've got to appreciate sass and Charlotte's got it in spades. She's a teen detective on her way to *hopefully* win an award for her work until she's caught up in a plot to frame her and take her down. Boom! Studios is always a favorite of mine with much of what they put out because I vibe with their artistry and bright colors, but also their spunky characters. This one didn't fail as I continue reading the issues via Hoopla.

What were your favorites of the month?
