Lemonade Summer by Gabi Mendez
Like most of the titles on this list, Lemonade Summer is all about growing up and figuring out who you are. Unlike the other titles, it’s a collection of seven different stories, each about LGBTQ and nonbinary kids exploring their identities and having fun in the sun. Featuring witches and pirates alongside college kids and derby girls, there is a story in here for everyone. Gabi Mendez wrote this collection to encourage and support readers of all-ages, no matter their gender or sexuality. "
