Please contact your reps to ask them to oppose these bills that target librarians and will result in more self-censorship of books that are not actually “harmful and obscene.”

It’s so good! I started watching after seeing a clip of Sterling Brown on Stephen Colbert talking about how he & James Marsden would sing together. How fun is that?!

Are you watching “Paradise” by chance? Because I am on episode 5, and it’s definitely building. I don’t want any spoilers.

I finished “Alone” last week and recommended it to several students. Such a great read! Didn’t know there was a sequel! I’ll have to check my public library.

I had to get a new roof & gutters a few years ago due to hail. It took a while bc there was a high demand in our area bc so many people needed new roofing. They upgraded my shingles in the replacement. Rate didn’t change til I switched insurance companies probably bc it’s more to replace now.

I just check the app at the beginning of each month to explore and it shows the free ALCs. I don’t get emails either.

Just placed a hold for the audiobook. Apparently, it’s in demand because I’m 7th in line. I’ve enjoyed other books by the author, so I’ll give this one a listen, too.

I got this as a free audiobook from @libro.fm for this month. When I branch out from elementary/middle grades, I like YA. Looking forward to listening eventually.

Oh, boo! I have to admit that book is in our library, but I’ve never read it. Ugh. I really don’t like books that use fat jokes and make it funny for kids. Following you on the previous place built up my awareness of that issue in books & I pay more attn now. Thank you for bringing this up.
