From your friendly librarian: please, please don’t make books, reading, or visits to the library a punishment OR a reward. It’s not as effective as you think it is, and it damages the relationship your child can build with us. Literacy is a birthright.
Today is stressful: Internet is down at work, I seem to have lost my Spanish computer vocabulary, & it’s so hot in here my eyelids are sweating. Send adorable pet pics pls

SISTER, SINNER by Claire Hoffman chronicles Aimee Semple McPherson's rise as a Pentecostal preacher. But it's also the mysterious tale of Aimee's disappearance and eventual return, then put on trial for faking her own kidnapping. A captivating profile of early 20th C. fame & folly. #LibFaves25

Welp, I started the year reading what I though was science fiction: REKT by Alex Gonzalez. Now that the year is over I feel it might become science reality (I'm wincing too!) Mix a little unresolved grief with AI and revenge, then shake.
