Had a patron come in and say they were trying to get back into reading after not reading for a long time and I asked what they were reading and they said A Little Life.
And I looked at him.
And he looked at me.
And then we found different books for them.

Far too many libraries' Banned Books Week displays will present these book challenges as petty nuisances rather than active, growing threats to democracy. Libraries are being defunded, receiving bomb threats, librarians being fired; our usual approach with caution tape ain't gonna do justice. 📚

Reading the new Wayward Children book (Lost in the Moment and Found) and I I firmly believe that this book is a perfect example of why trigger warnings work in literature. The way @seananmcguire.bsky.social let you know that it’s there but it’s going to be okay….just thank you. 📚
