Amee: All Boys Aren’t Blue by George M. Johnson
In 2022, All Blues Aren’t Blue made the American Library Association’s Top 13 Most Challenged Book List. Usually this list is top ten only, but there were so many challenges, several books tied and the list became 13. I have decided to read the 11 books on the list that I had not yet read. George shares stories of growing up queer and black.
