Police Report Filed for "Storm and Fury" by Jennifer Armentrout

Moms for Liberty is at it again! In this preview episode, Jennifer and Courtney cover the mom's latest shenanigans in trying to get yet another media specialist fired for yet another book. This time, the book is "Storm and Fury" by Jennifer Armentrout. This highly-reviewed young adult novel caused a school board candidate and Moms for Liberty member, Jennifer Tapley, to try and file a police report in Santa Rosa county, Florida, this past October. Join your hosts as they ponder why such a highly-rated and popular YA novel with just ONE spicy scene out of 300+ pages is creating such a hullabaloo while other school library books with pages and pages of spiciness are seemingly overlooked...Could it be because some of these books features diverse characters while others do not? Also, the holidays are approaching! Be sure to get your "Really Tough Ron-Boy Boots" t-shirt for the Ron Desantis' fans in your life…and if you don’t know what that means, just listen to the episode. ;)
