panIs it lyrical or narcissistic? Is the author a brave explorer or a refugee from Darwin‘s law? It feels like he is in love with listening to himself ramble his nihilistic monologue. However, not all readers have partaken of the substances that make philosophers and poets out of every fool.

This reminds me of the library tales @WanderingBookaneer has to tell 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 #foreword — they are many and varied! Also: “Every library is valuable in its particular way, and each is an example of the role and importance of libraries in the community of humanity.”
#TOC part 1. Inspired by @TheBookHippie I might do a deep dive on some of these and share some links. Interested? #librarylove
Thanks to my own personal librarian @WanderingBookaneer who brought these home for me! #libraryhaul #librarylove — And by the way, @WanderingBookaneer is back!!!!! Go show them some love! 💕
pickA real vintage postcard inspired each story in this remarkable collection. Butler uses these brief enigmatic messages to conjure lives at moments of revelation and transition: a father forced to face mortality, a new bride tempted by an alternate path, a formerly enslaved man asserting his dignity, an Alabama spinster seeking adventure abroad, a young South Dakota woman drawn to a stranger. This is masterful craftsmanship, poignant and haunting.
pickI‘ve been reading this a chapter a week with my book club, and it has been very enjoyable. Magnetic North is a travel log from a woman in the Arctic, and this edition had an afterword ten years later after climate change had really started to take hold. #NonFictionNovember
