I was justifying the tag for my own sake rather than because I think you described it incorrectly. ♥

Liv is an awesome queer Jew, heavily involved in community, and constantly makes me think and articulate myself. She isn't (obviously) shy about learning in public; she's a brilliant teacher; she is unfailingly respectful, and often hosts extremely difficult and sensitive discussions with a light touch and great insight; and I really love knowing her, because she challenges me to be better.

The excellent book recs don't hurt, of course, but - she makes me more, and I don't know how to be grateful enough. Strongly recommended.
