For the 'Among the Stars' prompt, does the book have to be set in space? Or have stars on the cover? A bit stuck on what to read...
Mod
It can be in any way you want to interpret the prompt. It could have a star on the cover, star in the title, set in space or a character name. Keeping some prompts vague will allow readers to be creative with their choices too, so I'm really excited to see what others have come up with.

Hey Clare, just an observation that your book chosen for the Non-binary, Genderfluid or Genderqueer protagonist prompt, The Art of Being Normal has two binary protagonists. A great alternative could be Every Day or Mask of Shadows. Also if you scroll down to Non-Binary Protagonists on LGBTQ READS you can find more recommendations as well.
^Adding to that, Rochelle, I don't think The Scorpion Rules has a nonbinary/genderfluid/genderqueer protagonist. To the best of my knowledge, Greta was cis/bisexual.
My reading list for January is finalised!!#1: How to Hang a Witch ✓
#2: Ida by Alison Evans ✓
#3: Take three girls
#4: In the Dark Spaces by Cally Black ✓
A quick question, would Take Three Girls suit the Supportive Friends prompt? I haven't read it yet, reading the blurb on the back makes me think not?
Mod
Hi Liz! It certainly would. It's a wonderful book about friendship and support. One of my favourites actually.

That you so much Chiara for the recommendations! I think it also really highlights the need for more young adult books need to be published with non-binary, genderqueer or genderfluid main character identities doesn't it.
