I’m saying this in my capacity as an author and once and future library worker:
Read whatever the hell you want.
I cannot impress enough on you that the “important” books aren’t important if you don’t jive with them. The popular books, the canon, the whatever. Read what you want.

Senators tweeting "still waiting on the price of groceries to drop" is not going to save our nation. To the surprise of no one, it isn't effective.

For years I justified my twitter habit by saying, "I need to be here to promote my books and stuff like the Project for Awesome."

Buckle up
After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.
