There are so many that I love but I think my favorite is Tropes and Trifles… a romance bookstore in Minneapolis, Mn
My birthday is tomorrow, which means my #50x50 reading challenge kicks off tomorrow! I‘m planning to read 50 books from my TBR before my 50th birthday (which is in 2028). I‘m planning to start with one of these:
Raybearer—30: gifted w/in last 5 years
Bird by Bird—9: about writing
Anam Cara—44: related to my vocation
The Library at Night—7: about books/reading
If you‘d like to join in, the link to the StoryGraph challenge is in the comments. ⤵️

pickSometimes there are some kids book that really can make you cry. This is one of them. A normal kid who is going through a tough time when his grandmother gives him a teddy bear where he can tell him everything and when his mother insists he is too old for the bear, he decides he is not.

Attending an event tonight about public libraries sponsored by my local PBS station.
Americans, please take 5 min to take a stand for our wonderful, crucial libraries: https://app.oneclickpolitics.com/campaign-page?cid=9CyapZUB9sorxFLO4J0c&lang=en #protectlibraryfunding
After I got my first cartilage piercings. I stopped at Moe‘s.
While I've collected most of my books due to loving history and information, I must admit, there's several I've gotten due to nostalgia.
pickIt felt like a good time to read this book. Few people dedicate their time to study the stolen books in Europe, returning them to the families that remain, of those they once belonged to before the Nazis ripped them away. Book bans are nothing new, but they never lead to anything good. What we are seeing in America right now is a repeat of the not so distant past. Did we learn nothing? Take away books, destroy thinking minds, destroy a people.
