I found paradise within paradise, a tiny bookshop in the heart of the Galápagos. Proof that stories travel as far as the sea turtles. 📚🐢

I received an advanced copy of Sisters In The Wind by Indigenous Author Angeline Boulley. 🙌🏽
This is the NYT Bestselling Author's 3rd book!
I've been on a "reading break" to write my dissertation but I will be making time for this! 😁

"The old white men who run this country are scared, and people do stupid, ugly things when they're scared. But they're counting on their power and our fear...add your voice to the rising scream of dissent. We have to say no more." 🙌🏽

Wow! ❤️✊🏾 In the middle of my newest read.

Oh. My. Goodness. 🙃 The ending! 🤯 I both love and hated the way this ended. 😭 BRILLIANT! There's so much to unpack but nobody to unpack with! 😆 No spoilers here. 🤐 Now, we await the next book. Maybe I'll read them all again...lol

When a book turns you into your abuela watching her novelas, you know it's GOOD, GOOD! 🤣 #iykyk

I laughed A LOT. I enjoyed the humor. I didn't mind the drama. This was such a fun read!

Life Update: I finished #TheSevenHusbandsofEvelynHugo a couple of weeks ago.

This was the first book, in a long time, to make me audibly react. I gasped, laughed, and even shed tears.

At one point I said out loud, "Oh no!! Not (insert character name)!" 😪

Whew! 🙌🏽

The #ThroneOfGlass series is a wrap! Wow! What a ride. I was ready to be done, but then I wasn't. Does that make sense?

I'm thankful to the #romantasy genre and its authors for helping me rediscover my love of reading. 💕

I'm taking a romantasy break before digging into the next. 😊

My 16 year old's opening while debating a bill he didn't agree with during his high school civics class...
"I'm not here to discourage the vote. I'm here to inform the vote."
Then, he proceeds to make his argument.

Wow, Rep. Gracin! 👏🏾😁

Make the flight ✈️ or risk missing it by taking a detour to my next reading 📚 adventure?

I finished reading #TowerOfDawn by @sarahjmaas.bsky.social today. I struggled through some parts of this one, but I pushed through and am glad I did. It all came together in a big way.

I'm 10 chapters into the next and last book of the #ThroneOfGlass series.

A blast from my childhood past. Little did I know the nostalgia this would invoke. 🥰
Thank you mom and dad for the trips to our public library. 🫶🏾

Writing children’s books which promote empathy is my act of rebellion.

I just finished up #RemarkablyBrightCreatures by @shelbyvanpelt.bsky.social 🫶🏾 I took a break from my usual #romantasy genre and was not disappointed.

✔️The 14th Amendment regarding birthright citizenship is in question, and it does explicitly mention "Indians."
✔️Tump's Executive Order targets babies born to illegal or undocumented immigrant parents on U.S. soil.

Tribal Nations matters are NOT DEI matters. They never were. 🚫

The moment you begin thinking that way and reacting that way is the moment you compromise our SOVEREIGNTY.

We must be vigilant in holding the federal government accountable for their very LEGAL trust responsibility. ‼️

1: On this, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day let's celebrate him for the social disruptor he was, not the romanticized and digestable version we have selectively turned him into.
