Sneak Peak of my little local bookclub list for 2026! My notes are sketchy.
I aim for variety of topics and 200-250ish pages. DEAR PUBLISHERS we need more audiobooks (read by humans)!! I actually took 3 options off 🙁 because our group needs that accessibility option often.

I’ve spent the weekend building a little library book box, complete with tiny art museum. I’m selecting the books I’ve read before and will have a little “why I picked this” summary on IG. Very pleased with this venture.

If you have any opinion about the population experiencing homelessness, no you don’t. Not until you read this book. Time to turn off the TV and open a book.

Before I log off for the month, I’m going to promote this absolutely phenomenal book. The tone is gentle, yet the topic is tough. I cannot begin to express what a kind and thoughtful and caring voice Kevin creates here. Please get yourself a copy. @kevinmnye.bsky.social
