\n

Have you ever wanted to know more about the content of a middle grade or young adult book mentioned in one of my book lists<\/a>? I try to write as many full reviews<\/a> as I can on my website, but it’s a mammoth task to write over 200 (I read over 200 books a year!) full reviews every year.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Still, I keep track of all my reading in a super-secret spreadsheet where I write all the content notes and trigger warnings I might need to remember years after reading a book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, I share all of my content notes with my paid community<\/a>!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Whether you want to know if the dog dies or just how many F-bombs are in a book or if the book includes LGBTQ+ characters, religious messaging, or underage drinking, you’ll find that information in our Content Notes Database<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Each book will have a “Genre” tag, and there will also be a separate “Details” column specifying exactly what the book features<\/strong> so you can have more context. If they need notes for a specific book not currently listed, community members can also submit requests for Content Notes, <\/strong>and I’ll do my best to make them happen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As there will also be tags for the representation of issues like ADHD, autism, mental illness, and other things, I hope this will become a helpful resource for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What people are saying<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“This alone is worth the price of admission. Thank you!! This is going to be so helpful!!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
