#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

Today‘s haiku is a bit late because I was trying to think of something peppier but honestly this birthday is bumming me out. I truly appreciate all of the well-wishes of friends & family & I know I am lucky & blessed to be here, but I‘m just not excited about adding another year to my age & this year in particular. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Birthday rolls around
Counting years with heavy sighs
Blues beneath the cake

Dilara I don't know whether to wish you a happy birthday or not... Anyway, I hope you feel less bummed out soon 🌻 2w
kspenmoll So sorry Deb. I know this year has been a whirlwind of work. Here‘s to a better year ! I hope your day bring‘s you little joys. 💕💕💕 2w

CBee @DebinHawaii I understand this quite well 😢 I do hope things slow down for you soon, and that at some point you‘ll feel in the mood for celebrating 💚 But if you don‘t, I get that too 🫂 2w
JenlovesJT47 Totally understandable, hope you feel better and enjoy your day ❤️‍🩹🫂 2w
TheBookHippie I get it. Sending you love & light! I am so glad you‘re here!! 2w
AmyG Happy Birthday, Deb. Some birthdays hit harder than others. May next year be that much more special. 2w
Bookzombie Happy Birthday! Sometimes I have a hard time with birthdays. I hope your year gets better. 💐 2w
Ddzmini Happy birthday hoping you have a beautiful day 🎉🎁🎂🎊🎈 🥳📚 2w
lil1inblue I feel you on this one! Birthdays have become much more bittersweet. But I hope you're able to have a happy birthday regardless, even if it's just a low-key day. 💓 2w
dabbe I don't know if this birthday ending in a “0“ or a “5“, but those are usually big ones, aren't they? I hit the big 60 this year, and I'm still trying to come to terms with that. You've also had a tremendously busy work year. Give yourself lots of grace and feel what you need to feel. Glad you're here for another spin around the sun on this rocky planet. 💛💜🧡 2w
Bookperson96 I feel you. Compared to you I might be young but I have had a similar feeling for quite a while. But since 29 is the new 16 I feel a little bit at ease… Hope your day was pleasant nonetheless. 🙂 1w

Listen, I stalled nearly halfway through just because I wasn‘t in the mood for it. Expected to dnf or at least skim the end, but the joke was on me! As soon as I cracked it open again I was pulled right back. Ended up reading for hours until it was finished. I enjoyed this one!

I finished my new book nook, and also my book. READY OR NOT is a great example of how valuable #AuldLangSpine is, because I doubt I‘d even have noticed it if it hadn‘t appeared on @peanutnine ‘s list, and it was absolutely wonderful! I‘m so glad I have it in my life! I love a book that‘s fair to all its characters even when they can‘t be fair to themselves. Major props for being a trans-inclusive hetero pregnancy romance, too.

willaful Oh, I don't think I knew that. I haven't been a huge fan of hers but I'll have to give this one a try. 3mo
xicanti @willaful I hadn‘t even heard of her before this. There‘s so much hetero contemporary romance that slides right under my radar. 3mo
britt_brooke Read this recently for book club, and everyone really enjoyed!! 3mo

xicanti @britt_brooke it‘s so good! 3mo
peanutnine I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I appreciated the inclusivity as well 3mo
peanutnine @willaful I don't know what all you've read of hers, but although I like all her cute romcoms that you can find on audible, I found this one had a different tone that I loved more 3mo
willaful @peanutnine yeah, I did listen to some of those. Okay, but I like contemporary romance with more depth. 3mo
peanutnine @willaful yes, that's a good way to put it. This one definitely has more depth to the characters and story 3mo

I get to spend a few days with my very favourite reading buddy! He‘s helped me make a good start on READY OR NOT, which is great so far. Lots of nuance to everyone‘s emotional responses to this unplanned pregnancy.

I went into the library to pick up READY OR NOT (my penultimate book for #AuldLangSpine 2025!), but of course I couldn‘t resist this anthology of urban poetry from Africa off the New Stuff stand.

Welp I accidentally read the whole thing in one sitting and really enjoyed it. I liked that they communicated with each other for the most part and they built each other up. Win and Bo definitely became better people because they met each other.
