Omg….i am in heaven! I asked the local @amctheatres manager if I could have the movie poster. He called me today to say that he had a brand new one to give to me. I picked it up after work and can‘t wait to use it for my Jane Austen library display!
It truly is the little things in life that make it grand!

It‘s officially hashtag#TakeActionForLibraries Day! To celebrate and advocate for libraries and library funding, we want every library lover to make their voice heard today. Head to ala.org/showup to learn how you can take action by calling or emailing Congress, writing a letter to your local newspaper, and more! Tell Congress how important your library is to your community - and how important federal funding is to sustain their work.
It‘s #nationallibraryweek and you can support your local library by visiting it.
Checking out resources and attending programs/events is one way that you can support your library. Numbers are librarians‘ friends because higher numbers of resources being used by the local community translates into more funding for us.

It‘s getting real! My cap, gown and honor cords arrived today!

If you don‘t have a library card, get one. Have friends and family get a library card. Use it!
This is one way to support libraries!
pickThe story introduces Billie Hope, a former New York City food scene star whose career crumbled during the pandemic. An email offering a stunning Victorian house in Juliana, Georgia, for just a hundred dollars, plus a generous business grant. With little hesitation, she uproots her husband, Peter, and their daughter, Meredith, and heads south. A twisty psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the end!
Book 42 of the year.
One of my lovely patrons came in yesterday with a belated birthday present for me. They know me well with all the pink, florals and Pride and prejudice!
I absolutely adore my patrons without presents and this just made my day!

My sons got me some bookish tshirts along with a BN gift card for my birthday!
I went to the book outlet warehouse this weekend. Everything is 70% off. This is my haul. $100 spent.
I read this with the @litsybookclub . Book 41 of the year.
pickSummer in the City is a perfect summer book but yet it's just perfect all the time. Elle, is a screenwriter who is writing for a movie set in New York City. Elle meet Parker, who is a billionaire at a nightclub two years earlier, they have a stairwell hookup and she swears never to visit NYC again.
This was a lovely story from start to finish!
Book 40 of the year.
This is my first Alex Aster book and it is so fun. I love how pretty this book is with the stenciled edges, colorful end pages and embossed cover! There are four editions and each one is different. I have the Walmart edition.
Every year, I reread Pride and Prejudice. I have been reading this book since I was 12 years old.
Book 39 of the year.

This story grabbed me from the first paragraph. The descriptive words of the Shenandoah Valley, the Civil War battles, the people were so real. As someone who has visited this part of the country, I felt that I was drawn back there and watching this story unfold.
Gripping, wonderfully written, well thought out, and hard to put down, Chris Bohjalian delivered a powerful and moving book with The Jackal's Mistress.
Book 33 of the year.
Happy Pi Day! This morning, I made an apple cinnamon and a small banana cream pie.
panThis was an interesting take on "Little Women". It focuses on the other March sister: Amy, Beth and Meg. It has queer undertaking on some of the main characters and definitely is different than the story that we know along with Jo being missing from the entire book. Each of the other sisters are represented differently than in the original story. In reading the epilogue, only one of the three authors has actually read "Little Women".
Book 32.
I absolutely adored this story! Arwyn and Zaki have a wonderful love story complete with hockey, sewing and two adorable little girls and dogs thrown in. This love story of two opposites falling in love is just magical. Kerry writes another win in the Coffee Loft Series!
Book 29 of the year.
pickThis is a contemporary romance that revolves around Bryony and Jack. Bryony is a ghostwriter for one of Jack's authors. This is a friends to lovers, he falls first and workplace romance. Everything about this story is just perfect and it truly is the perfect rom-com. Enjoyable, fun,, laughed out loud and highly recommend.
Book 28 of the year.
When you come home after a busy day at the library, have a meeting and then homework, you squeal with delight when you finally open up bookmail and it is a book from one of your favorite authors!
So, please don‘t bother me as I will be reading for the rest of the night!
Many thanks to @ChrisBohjalian and @doubledaybooks with @penguinrandomhouse for this surprise #bookmail! You truly know how to make this librarian happy! 😊
March #hopefuls. This doesn‘t include any ebooks, audiobooks or new March releases.
