Needed a warmhearted story to fall into on this cold rainy Friday and Uprooted by @ohtruth.bsky.social was exactly it! So endearingly perfect 💙

Looking forward to more homemade lattes and good reads over Thanksgiving break 🍁 I fell in love with Uprooted by Ruth Chan @ohtruth.bsky.social 🪴The title is an absolutely PERFECT fit for your memoir. Thank you for sharing your story and experience! #graphicnovels #memoir
