ALA is disappointed and concerned with the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to allow a lower court ruling in Little v. Llano County stand. This decision will significantly restrict the freedom to read in public libraries across Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi.

Reader here. I love books that inspire me to investigate further. And that could be anything from researching subject matter, places, people, times in history, to reading other books on those things that have caught my interest. I also love books that make me look up words in the dictionary.

As a trans-owned bookstore, we're tired, y'all. I wish I had something poignant to say for Trans Awareness Week in the face of all these attacks, but I don't. I feel so much grief & anger. To my trans siblings, I love y'all. Anyway, read trans books, celebrate trans life, & protect one another.
