As you may have heard, Utah banned 4 more books statewide.
Keep reading and talking about these books.
And join us tomorrow at Elevate Utah and Better Utah's Action Fair at 6 p.m. at Church & State to learn how you can help us fight back against book bans.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

It's a big day here in Long Beach! ARCs of HOLLOWAY arrived, and I'm suing Utah along with the ACLU, other authors, and some brave students. Also, I cut bangs.

I'm THRILLED to share the cover of my speculative fiction debut, HOLLOWAY (pub date 5/4/26! art by Sarah Jarrett, cover designed by Corina Lupp & Jenna Stempel-Lobel). Autism? Anti-vaxxers? Art? Philosophy? Reverberations & cycles through history? If you say "yes, please," then HOLLOWAY is for you.
Total instances of book bans: I'm #6. Number of unique titles affected by book bans: I'm tied for #9 with @halseanderson.bsky.social. Number of districts in which the author is banned: I'm #3. Please don't say "Good for you." It's "Shame on them."
It's been 2+ years since I wrote this essay, but it seems like a good time to say this again: I'm autistic. I love my brain. And... if you meet one person with autism, you've met... one person with autism. We are not a monolith. But we are whole people, each of us.
