Book excerpt: In this queer YA retelling of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, stakes at Augustus Magnet School are cutthroat, scheming is creative, and loyalty is ever-changing. Overnight, Bronwyn St. James goes from junior class queen to daughter of an imprisoned felon, and she lands in the care of her aunt and younger cousin Cass, a competitive cheerleader who Bronwyn barely knows. Life gets worse when her ex-best friend, the always-cool Jude Cuthbert, ostracizes Bronwyn from the queer social elite for dating a boy, Porter Kendrick. Bronwyn and Jude are both running for student body president, and that means war. But after Bronwyn, Porter, and Cass share a video of Jude in a compromising position, Jude suddenly goes missing. No one has seen her for weeks and it might be all Bronwyn’s fault. Will Jude ever be found? Or will Bronwyn finally have to reckon with what she’s won—and what she’s lost?

I bought this book without knowing what to expect but it's a bible to have! I would have liked to read it during pregnancy and put in place everything that the author advises us from the start. There are "scientific" explanations to support his arguments, a lot of kindness and a very concrete program (with timetables and examples) to give a rhythm to the baby according to his age.I completed this method with the sleep timer and the results are there. The feedings go better, they start to fall asleep at regular times and fall asleep alone for the morning nap ... in bed! A real miracle! In short, I recommend this book to all those who do not really know what a day should look like, all those who want kindness and a method around the child without forgetting the parents.PS: the big plus?
