AllDebooks Again, my apologies for missing last week. https://litsy.com/p/cWNXNzY0WDRn 1d
Librarybelle Good morning! It‘s almost 7am on the US East Coast, and I‘ll soon make the trek to the grocery store for weekly groceries, in hopes to beat the crowds. Today marks the 250th anniversary of the beginning of the US Revolutionary War, and I enjoyed reading Heather Cox Richardson‘s remarks about the events leading up to it. They reminded me that ordinary people can do amazing tiny things. I‘m also enjoying the Golden Girls cozy mystery: 1d
TheBookHippie @Librarybelle loved Heathers words today!!! 21h

TheBookHippie Off to protest… ✊🏼 21h
AllDebooks @Librarybelle Her speech was so good. She is an inspiration. 21h
AllDebooks I have been enraged by the Supreme Courts definition of a woman this week. Yet another backwards step and attack on marginalised people. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/apr/16/a-huge-reset-trans-rights-campaign... 20h
AllDebooks The upside is the outpouring of love and support for the trans community. 🏳️‍⚧️ I am a trans ally and will do all I can to support them through this latest sh*tshow. 20h
quietlycuriouskate Oh, you know, the usual (which is not necessarily a bad thing): groceries, housework, setting up my planner for next week, brief local walk. Now I've shut the door behind me and I'm actually going to READ until it's time to get the tea on. 20h
AllDebooks @quietlycuriouskate A bit of routine followed by a reading session. Perfect ☕️📚☕️ 20h
AllDebooks I was completely enamoured with this month's #RiseUpRead ❤️ It's in my top 10 poetry books of all time. Such a beautiful, important book. I'm thrilled to have found this author. 20h

dabbe @AllDebooks I wonder how we'd all treat each other if we just thought of ourselves as earthlings and nothing more than that. 🤔 18h
dabbe Thanks for the tag, m'dear! 😍 Phoenix is enjoying UNBELIEVABLE weather this week! We had a big rain last night, and the high today is only supposed to be 75º F (24º C). I actually cried tears of joy. So, we're taking a LONG walk with the pups and currently have the windows open and no AC. We're thinking a lazy day of (you guessed it) reading. Happy Saturday, EVERYONE! 🌈 18h
DebinHawaii Thanks for the tag! I‘m having a slow start to the weekend & am mostly catching up from a busy workweek. I got home from the airport last night after all day meetings & crashed. Woke up late & just made it to the coffee shop, then errands & maybe a nap later. 15h

TheSpineView I totally forgot to read this one.🤦‍♀️ I had planned to read in the first few days off April. 🐿🧠 2w
julesG @TheSpineView Don't worry. I'm the same. 🫣🫣 Glad I have the audiobook and only about 2 more hours to go. 2w

BarbaraJean I actually finished this one on time! To refer back to my earlier comments on Terry's use of chapters: I was sad he reverted back to no chapters here! But I did really enjoy it, chapters or not. I loved seeing Moist discover new sides to himself, and the interplay with Adora was fantastic, even if there wasn't a whole lot of it. I also liked Dick Simnel and the way Harry and Moist kind of mentor him. And the reveal about Vetinari at the end! 2w
julesG @BarbaraJean Still wondering where I read about the chapters and what. My mind is a sponge when it comes to soaking up information, but a bank vault when I try to get the information out. I know that chapters were discussed pre writing the Tiffany Aching books. Guess I'll remember it when I least expect it and don't have anything with me to take notes. 😁 2w
BarbaraJean @julesG Haha--yeah, these days my recall of where I read something or how I know something is a bit diminished. 😆 2w
kwmg40 I really enjoyed this one, partly because I love travelling on trains and find the history of train travel interesting, and partly because of the subplot involving the dwarves, which provided a few surprises! 2w

Oh, Canada! | Per-Henrik Grth
post image

I thought we could explore Genevieve Graham as an author for the next #OhCanada read. She has written a number of books with many of them being Canadian historical fiction set around war times. She went to school to be a musician and only started writing books at the age of 40! She also has a new book coming out in April 2025. Please vote if you'd like to and if it is a tie I will flip a coin. All are welcome to join this low key read.

Ruthiella Like Mary Lawson, another Canadian writer who started publishing in middle age. I‘m fine with either title! 3w
