Deblovestoread I can‘t wait to get my hands on Wild Dark Shore. I preordered it with a release date of March 4. Went to B & N last week and it was on the shelf. 😱 And now it‘s a BOTM pick. You‘re killing me Smalls! 🤣 6d

ChaoticMissAdventures I hate how much chaos they are causing. It appears the library is reopened, but I cannot find if they brought back enough staff to keep it open? I am not at all surprised unfortunately, this administration hates history and truth. 2w
bookishbitch I am so over this administration already. 2w
AnnCrystal Glad that it reopened.

Scary times 😢 I didn't vote for this either 📚🇺🇲🦅🇺🇸📚.

Books & artist will always be considered a threat. We should gather and do a protest by going outside, finding a safe, legal place to sit, and read from dawn to dusk for a day. If anything, it will drive the suppressors crazy. Writers should come with typewrites or journals and artist with canvases.

Just to be clear, I am not officially suggesting this 😜📚💝.

forestandcrow My library is trying to change my kids library card to where she cannot check out books they deem "inappropriate" for her age. They are trying to also not let us use our cards at other libraries not in our network. They are moving books that the religious zealouts here deem "pornographic" or "inappropriate" for kids without reading them. Our library is aleeady small enough. It is awful. I have emailed so manytimes about it all. 2w

My 2 biggest joys are my Valentine‘s card from my grandson. He knows I love books so he made a cover of a Stephen King book, Harry Potter and coffee. Kid so gets his Nana.

Also it‘s going to snow for 2 days so lots of reading…that‘s 2 joys. And the last is peace and quiet because my husband will be skiing. 🤣

Happt Valentine‘s Day! ❤️

I got a package from you-but sadly, it was empty. 😞
We have a box at the UPS store and the owner asked me, to ask you, to describe what was in it. He is going to contact the Post Office and see if they have unclaimed things there. 🤞🏻

Please know I was so touched that you sent me something. I was a bit worried (as Jewish Moms get) when you weren‘t on here…so was doubly excited. Thank you, my friend. So very much.

Reggie That sucks. I‘m sorry AmyG. It had the book, Memorials by Richard Chizmar and a Tony‘s chocolate bar, and a creepy postcard with a family sitting in front of a fireplace at Christmas with a demon‘s face behind them in the darkness. (edited) 2mo

First book of 2025. Good mystery. The audiobook was interesting as I felt I was listening to a movie or production. There were sound effects and it was read quite dramatically…hence the “full-cast dramatisation”. It was a quick listen.
