Starting local is the first step to fighting for your freedom to read, but it can be a daunting process. Here are some ways to work it into your own life! #BannedBooksWeek Why You Should Get Involved with Local Organizations, & How to do it:

Donate Your Time

Plenty of groups are doing the work to fight back against book bans at a state and local level Florida Freedom to Read or the Texas Freedom to Read Project are two examples.

Attend Meetings

Attend local school board and library board meetings. Being informed is the best way to protest book banning and so attending and speaking up at community meetings are vital for making change.

Donate Money
Donating money helps these state and local organizations continue to fight for the freedom to read. Even a small amount of support goes a long way to the continuation of these organizations.

Join the Fight
Join your local Friends of the Library group. These groups are important in advocating for literacy, library funding, and many other issues but they are also a great place to meet other lovers of the library!

Grayson and Eloise are PEAK enemies-to-lovers, and we are obsessed with both of them 😍 Meet them in Adriana Mather's latest contemporary magic school fantasy, ALCHEMY OF SOULS, on sale now! #AlchemyOfSouls #AdrianaMather

Meet Grayson & Eloise. Sworn Enemies from ALCHEMY OF SOULS. The image shows a hear around two fair skinned characters looking at each other. On the left is a handsome dark haired man, and the right is a pretty russet haired girl. They're staring into each others' eyes.

Eloise: • Extremely feisty • Terrible at flirting • Would fight a lion for you • Struggling magic student who works extremely hard • The best friend you'll ever have • Top skill: knocking people on their butts • Puts up with zero nonsense (especially from Grayson) • Constantly worried about the safety of her family.

Grayson. Academy of Magic's golden boy • Has the nerve to be extremely handsome • Does the right thing when no one's looking • Has a smile that could start a war or end one • Loves to flirt (annoyingly good at it) • Really good at cheeky banter • Admired by all • Greatest fear: being truly known •

A copy of the book ALCHEMY OF SOULS by Adriana Mather. It features the same two characters from the first slide, but now we can see they're framed in the open space on a shelf covered in books and plantlife. The text beneath the book reads: "Read if you like... enemies to lovers, fake dating, forced proximity, opposites attract"
