hey book friends! join us for a chat about March, written by John Lewis, Andrew Aydin, and illustrated by Nate Powell... it's a good, interesting, quick read. we're at least talking about Book 1, but keep reading if you are enjoying it! and come chat!
we're meeting on May 21, 6 pm SLT. hope you'll join us!
I have all three!
Yikes I need to round that up!
YAY
If your public library has Hoopla, it's available there.
Weird. Only books 2 and 3 are available on Hoopla through my library.
AlannaRobbiani: hmm strange, I just searched for March and saw the first one... I wonder if different libraries are paying for different amounts of hoopla!
I’m sure there are different levels but to not have the whole series is weird.
is it not like overdrive in that it depends on your library? 
My library system shows all three volumes in Hoopla (I'm d/l'ing #1 as we plurk, tx Sam!) Maybe all the licenses for #1 are in use for your system, Alanna?
CoyotePace That could be, but then it really ought to indicate that. When I spoke to step about getting Hoopla at the library I work in, he said that should never happen. But, it does depend on the licensing agreement for each library. Venders rarely give the same offer to every library.
Step = a rep
are we ready for tomorrow, bookworms? I'm back in town and ready to discuss this book!
still on for 6 pm tomorrow if you are! 
gets reading...
I'm just terrible with print books. I do much better when it's audio, which obviously would not work well for this. At least it's graphic, so not many words, lol
It’s a lighting quick read
We shall see!
Also if you know anything about the civil rights movement it will be very, very familiar, which is another reason I feel like I’m flying through it
But we will discuss that tomorrow lol
Ah shit I need to go in and pick up the Akata build. Sorry I don’t have time to do one for this - anyone have numbered eggs we could sit on? 
Odd numbers only though!
I do know a bit about the civil rights movement. 
I've also attended a talk with Congressman Lewis and the co-author of these books when Book 3 came out. It was amazing to hear him talk about his experiences in person!

Well then dude you are going to read this in like a minute lol
it was very interesting to me because by reading it i realized i didn't really know very much
only vaguely, the most famous parts but not necessarily what was in the book!
I've read about half now. I knew the chicken story, not only because of his talk, but also because of a children's book I bought a year or so ago.
Look what I saw in a shop today, randomly!! 
Did you buy them? 
I finished the book last night!
No I didn’t lol
Maybe I will when I finish all three? I feel like I haven’t run into these specific references quite yet
