Read everything you can push into your skull. Read your motherâ€™s diary. Read Assata. Read everything Gloria Steinem and bell hooks write. Read all of the poems your friends leave in your locker. Read books about your body written by people who have bodies like yours. Read everything that supports your growth as a vibrant, rebel girl human. Read because youâ€™re tired of secrets.
Gabby Rivera, Juliet Takes a Breath
