The library bought a 2nd copy of @freyamarske.bsky.social's CINDER HOUSE, halving the estimated wait time. Maybe another month? Also on hold since mid-October.

My longest current wait is for THE SPELLSHOP by @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social

There were 73 people waiting when I put in a hold.

The Lost by @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social, originally published in 2014, has been expanded and has a new ending. It's a fantasy yet modern contemporary fiction at the same time. A powerful story of being lost and what it takes to be found
