Shelf-reading on the floor at the public library, balancing books and my emotions—because today marks the last day of my last class in the MLIS program. 💛📚

#CurrentListen is genre-bending.

I love it when the author likes my review.

Dang this book.
I resent it and love it at the same time.

Reader, I bought it.

(I was getting ready for work.)

Part history of the early days of surfing, part graphic memoir about the love of the author‘s life, and the dawning realization that grief and the ocean share commonalities.

Who knew that the man who has brought so many tears of laughter to my eyes, would make me cry?

“Somewhere Only We Know” - When you get to that part, you might understand why.

It‘s here!

I‘d been inching closer to identifying as nonbinary, but I was struggling to embrace they/them pronouns for myself. This quote made me realize that I can be nonbinary and use she/her pronouns.

So I‘m officially coming out as nonbinary. Still she/her.

The roller derby / literary mashup I did not know I needed. (Posted on Instagram by JammerCandy.)

I didn‘t love this one.

I was into it at first. Chloe gave me Maeve (Sex Education) vibes because she seemed to be a smart rebel who flaunted archaic rules. I was curious about Shara‘s disappearance and the scavenger hunt she sent Chloe, Smith, and Rory.

As the book progressed I realized that Chloe was just self-centered and immature and that Shara was a Regina George wannabe.

I wanted to love this book because I love the author, but alas.

It‘s here! 🇵🇷🏳️‍⚧️ #poetry

First you try to erase their relationship and then you write this dialogue.

Well hello, kitty!

This chapter broke me a bit. I‘ll post a spoiler in the comments.

I was expecting snarky pop culture and was instead captivated by a candid, at times heartbreaking, memoir whose threads were woven throughout with iconic moments in Sapphic* pop culture.

*or moments that we perceived as Sapphic.

I downloaded it this morning!

Dinner with s friend at the scrumptious The Library restaurant in St. Petersburg, FL.

After reading Olga Dies Dreaming I needed a light, entertaining read. I knew this series would provide it and I stayed up way past my bedtime to finish it.

My own heart was bursting with pride. I remember I was on vacation in Europe and couldn‘t wait to connect to Wi-Fi to see if the protests were successful.

The day the governor, who we all knew to be a murderer (I‘m not joking: When he was a teenager he was driving drunk, killed a mother and her son, and didn‘t stay on the scene to face the consequences of his actions), was ousted tears of joy streamed down my face.
