Protecting habitat is perhaps THE most important conservation strategy. But a proposed change to the Endangered Species Act would stop doing so, allowing people & companies to destroy habitat that endangered species need to survive.
Join us in stopping this change ➡️ xerces.org/protect-the-esa

I’d prefer access to a book signing with my favorite author! I got to experience that at Greensboro Bound last year and it was marvelous.

No room in my house for any more physical books at all, much less multiple editions of the same title.

I’ve opted for blind dates with books ever since I made the mistake of reading “The Ginger Man” by J.P. Donleavy after a close friend recommended it.
