join us for a spooky journey through the pages of Aiden Thomas' spellbinding novel, "Cemetery Boys." in this episode, we dive deep into a world where the living and the dead mingle and schoolyard bad bois can be summoned on whim.

from the allure of sexy ghosts to the vibrant tapestry of young adult fiction, urban fantasy, and paranormal romance, we unpack the rich layers of LGBTQIA+ romance and Latinx representation woven throughout the narrative (including a conspiracy that Yadriel is a watertok influencer). through Yadriel and Julian's love story, we explore the importance of visibility and representation in literature, celebrating the power of diverse storytelling to empower and uplift marginalized voices.

tune in as we unearth the magic of "Cemetery Boys" and celebrate the beauty of love, acceptance, and the power of reading diversely (also the power of keeping your school attendance record squeaky clean).
