I loved the classic Rick Riordan style and the way how our main character, Apollo\/Lester has changed over his time as a mortal (normal human). This book is so great and the different aspects, like Piper&#8217;s identity and Meg&#8217;s love for unicorns, were amazing. Overall, this was a really great book.  <br><\/li><li>Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leighbardugo.com\/\">Leigh Bardugo<\/a><br>This is SUCH a great duology. I loved getting the different viewpoints and the humor was perfect. You can definitely see the development in the characters and the plot was great. I loved all of the characters, especially Inej and Jesper. This book is filled with danger, love, sadness, and more.  I loved every page and think that it was such a great book!<br><\/li><li>Carry Me Home by <a href=\"https:\/\/janetsfox.com\/\">Janet Fox<\/a><br>This is such an amazing book. I love the characteristics of all the characters and the how the plot developed. This book brings together sadness, hope, and joy together in the best way possible. It&#8217;s an emotional read and I loved the way that the author wrote the emotions.  I love this book so, so much and I totally recommend it to you!<br><\/li><li>The Magic Fish by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.trungles.com\/\">Trung Le Nguyen<\/a><br>This is a great graphic novel about a young boy struggling to come out to his mother. I love the illustrations and how fairy tales played a big part in the story. It was a really sweet book and I loved the plot and how everything fit together. The fairy tales were beautiful and I loved how the book ended. This is such a great book!<br><\/li><li>The Pronoun Book by Cassandra Jules Corrigan<br>This book is a great guide to pronouns for people of all ages! It talks about the main pronouns (she\/her, he\/him, they\/them), but also others (ze\/zir, xe\/xem, fae\/faer). It&#8217;s an amazing book with fun pictures. There are also examples of how to use pronouns. It also touches on different parts of LGBT+ like trans, intersex, genderfluid, etc. This is a really great book and it&#8217;s really helpful!<br><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Top Books of January: click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/2021\/02\/01\/januarys-top-books\/\">here<\/a><br>Top Books of February: click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/2021\/03\/01\/februarys-top-books\/\">here<\/a><br>Top Books of March: click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/2021\/03\/29\/marchs-top-books\/\">here<\/a><br>Top Books of April: click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/2021\/05\/03\/aprils-top-books\/\">here<\/a><br>Top Books of May: click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/2021\/05\/31\/mays-top-books\/\">here<\/a><br>Top Books of June: click <a href=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/2021\/06\/30\/junes-top-books\/\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here are my top books for July!
