The mayor of New York telling people to stay home, use their library cards for digital resources, and read a romance novel is THE GREATEST GOVERNMENT ADVICE YOU WILL EVER GET FROM A POLITICIAN.

Whatever it takes is OK with me. Go buy books from an indie bookstore & go check out materials from your public library. Put a book in your hand. And drag your friends with you!

Last year half of American adults did not read a single book.

Become a consumer of books!

I moved to the Netherlands this past October. I just got the first set of replacements for my favorite books! The first installment was for the Haunted Bookshop series by @cleocoyle.bsky.social

Woke up to fresh snow and this surprise visitor in my yard. So glad I have nowhere to go, staying warm by the fireplace.

You should follow me on @goodreads! I only read 50 books in 2025 and I plan to get back on track with two reads per week in 2026! 📚 #annieinthehague #expat #thehague #netherlands #books #libraries #booksky #independentbookstores

Fireworks last night in The Hague. Just a short clip. The best show I’ve even seen! It lasted for 16 minutes and you’re only seeing about a third of the show. A building was blocking my view. #annieinthehague #expat #fireworks #newyearseve #thehague #thenetherlands 🎆🎉

You don’t have to buy them, you can get a library card. You can also buy from used bookstores and independent bookstores. #booksky #books #reading #cslewis #libraries #independentbookstores 📚😍

I’m in The Hague by the beach. This is the assembled bonfire that gets lit tonight along with fireworks over the North Sea. It’s in the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest bonfire in the world. It took a week & lots of people to assemble it. 🎉🔥🎆 #annieinthehague #thehague #thenetherlands
