📚 Featured Book: Shut Up, This is Serious
By Carolina Xita

Shut Up, This Is Serious by Oakland-born author Carolina Ixta is a raw and unflinching debut about friendship, love, and survival in East Oakland. Belén del Toro wants the simple things—love, belonging, and a future—but faces family struggles, depression, and the fallout of her best friend’s secret pregnancy. With honesty and heart, Ixta shines a light on the messy, complicated beauty of Mexican-American girlhood and the resilience it takes to break free.

✨ “A bold Oakland story about friendship, struggle, and finding your voice.”

📖 Recommended for grades 9 and up (ages 14+) due to themes of depression, sexuality, and teen pregnancy.
