My Filipino American History Month display at my library. It’s my honor each year to showcase & uplift Filipino stories. Just 5 years ago, I didn’t have enough books to even put up a display, but now my display overflows. I marvel at how far we’ve come. And yet there’s always room for more. #booksky

Pick your favorite 3 challenge ok go!
A graphic that reads: If every American did 3 of these 5 things, ICE would be stopped in its tracks. Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good were both shot by ICE agents on camera. Both times, the President blamed the civ Tim and excused ICE agents. We move NOW or hand over our rights. 1. Call law-makers. Deadline: January 30th. Google “(your city) senators” call of of them and say: I’m (name) from (city/zip). Defund ICE by opposing any DHS appropriations bill that maintains ICE funding, and support legislation that claws back the $75 billion ICE slush fund created by H.R. 1 last year.” When leaving a voicemail, give your full address so call is tallied 2. Boycott these campanile. They profit from and support ICE. They get no more from us. Home Depot, target, amazon, Whole Foods, Hilton hotels 3. Prepare your community. A local network of witnesses and whistleblowers can keep families together and save lives. Organize with neighbors. Know your rights. Know theirs. 4. Make recurring donations. Fund the lawyers fighting ICE through legal channels: Impact fund (immigrant rights portfolio) National Immigrant Justice Center, Immigrant Defense Project 5. Share this. Take a photo of this. Sent it to friends, post it on social media, print it out and slip it under doors. This is not the time for quiet opinions.Pick 3 or 4. Do them this week. Not for me, not for yourself, but for a very uncertain future. For Renee Good and Neither Porter. For future generations.

Another year in the books! Decorating the Children’s Reading Circle at my library can be a challenge (it’s roughly 8ft x 9ft), but it sure is a lot of fun. Moreso, we hope it is an inviting and magical place where kids will want to read. 📚 #librarysky #booksky

MISTRESS OF LIES is queer dark fantasy romance that follows a blood mage spymaster as she recruits a noble bastard with a terrible gift to hunt down a magical serial killer for the vampiric Eternal King—all while planning to overthrow him.

LORD OF RUIN is but with more monsters and smut.
