hhhh. When you tell your librarian you just want something “fun & lighthearted, maybe romance, maybe fantasy” and they send you home with these 😂 💙📚

I don’t want to hear a single negative yap about the 37 of 40 federal death row inmates whose sentences were commuted by Biden until you’ve read this book. Nary a murmur or complaint. Not one “but what about the families of the victims?” or “obviously they were on death row for a reason”. Copy?

Being a reader is both a blessing and a curse in these unprecedented times. 💙📚 this one has me weak, I know that it’s “fiction” and yet…. And YET….

In the race to 1k books before kindergarten… K has read 100 books since Halloween 🫶🏼📚 I think my favorite part is when she gives them ⭐️ ratings based on things like “I loved this one but it was really long and now I’m exhausted and need a break. 3 stars”

When you only get 300 characters, expressing the true sentiment behind words becomes a slight challenge. I definitely am not one to speak for all religions but our area is thick with religious zealots who feel so emboldened to post things like this 👇🏼 daily in community groups.
