Discussion Post for Highly Suspicious and Unfairly Cute by Talia Hibbert
[ID: a light pink book with an illustrated cover of two Black teens in outdoor gear in front of green trees. The book sits on a gray wooden floor covered in loose book pages surrounded by a circle of dark pink roses and carnations. Brown scrabble tiles spelling out “book club” sit underneath the book with a white paper crane on the right.]
