I’m so mad about this.
Especially when you think about the dwindling coverage for books, the struggle for poetry and MG books to get ANY kind of press, and the boost indie comics get from things like this.
It was SOMETHING, you know? Ugh.

Recently had an incredible MG anthology with a phenomenal line up shelved. All the rejections were of the "MG is a hard sell right now"
This is part of the reason that is true
@goodreads the choice is actually not mine because I read a lot of lovely poetry and middle grade this year and you took them off the list 😭
