I think the hardest thing about finishing a book is deciding what to read next. I never freaking know. None of the 80 unread books I own sound good apparently.

I'm struggling so much to read Bloodmarked. Not because it's bad by any means. I'm hooked every time I pick it up but I'm struggling to find the energy to read after work and to pick it up just because it's so long.
That's so fair! I swore of TikTok for a bit to but I recently caved and got back there. I'm on and off with insta. Unfortunately I have friends that only have insta and I want to keep up with them
I keep forgetting about posting on Bluesky.
I love my libraryβbut the White House is trying to dismantle the agency in charge of federal library funding. It provides jobseeker resources, technology for people with disabilities, and even more.
Call Congress! Urge them to save federal funding #ForOurLibraries π bit.ly/CallCongressForLibraries
I'm still thinking about this one. It's so damn good.
Thank you! π
Me and my fiancΓ©e are getting our first apartment together after living with roommates for the past three years and dude I'm literally DREAMING of all the stuff we'll get to do with the place. To have a place that's all our own? I can't wait.
Yesss!!
I love to hear that! You'll have to let me know what you think.
That definitely sounds scary and not fun! I can only imagine.
Cover of SO LET THEM BURN by Kamilah Cole, showing the profile of a young woman with a dragon entwined in front of her and around her, head over hers, and a burning city below. Cover Text: "A dragon took her sisterβshe'll set the world on fire to bring her back."
Hi if you have not read this book you need to it's so freaking good! The themes and messages. The sibling bonds. The romance (which includes the POV of a demisexual character and a separate sapphic character pov), the world building, ect! It's all so good and I can't wait to dive into the sequel!

Currently reading So Let Them Burn by Kamilah Cole and I'm loving this even more than I thought I would. I love the characters and the world building and am so excited to see where this goes and dive into the sequel.
That's kind of how I felt about A Study in Drowning another book by her that I read. Which is why I'm more wary to read this one lol
I want to read this one so bad but I'm seeing so many mixed reviews.
This is so, so important. We can not lose the vital parts of the community that libraries are.
ATTENTION OH RESIDENTS!
Our public #libraries need help! Not only has π signed an EO to gut the IMLS, but now the OH House budget proposal reduces library funding by $100million.
There IS time to contact your reps & show support for public libraries! Learn how below

I said that I would donate $3 to Camp Lilac for every 100 pages read for the #transrighrsreadathon. I read 842 pages. I'm rounding up and giving a $25 donation which covers a campers welcome package according to the Camp Lilac website. Click here to donate as well: givebutter.com/camplilac-2025
Do I attempt to go back to sleep and risk feeling more tired and groggy or stay up and read because I no longer feel tired?
Ooh smart!
I'm in the middle of like 4 books and I can't decide which one I want to read/focus on right now. π
Life really just nerfed me making my reading for this readathon very difficult. π
Thank you so much for donating! π
A light blue water color background with gold flecks scattered around. A logo with a lilac purple frame with the outline of a sun, trees and a tent, underneath the words Camp Lilac and three flowers under the text. A lilac purple block next to with text that reads: "Now more than ever queer joy & community is crucial which is why I want the trans organization I donate to for TRR this year to be camp Lilac. A local summer camp specifically for trans and gender diverse youth age 13-17. A summer camp where they can feel safe, supported, and affirmed. I will be donating $3 for every 100 pages read for the read-a-thon. "
The trans organization I'm donating to and promoting for the Trans Rights Read-a-thon is Camp Lilac. For more information and to donate yourself check out their website at www.camplilac.org
Okay so I attempted last night to start Light From Uncommon Stars and my brain was not processing anything and I have no idea why so today I started Name Her Holy instead and so far I'm really enjoying it. About 50 pages in. #transrightsreadathon
Right!?
I got this box as well and I'm so obsessed! I'm so happy to have a beautiful edition of Outdrawn.
It's gonna at least be a few days cause even if I find a new pharmacy I have to wait till Monday for my doctor to send it.
Well my lack of focus makes sense yesterday. I forgot I didn't take my stimulants. I ran out earlier this week but my pharmacy is out of stock so now I have to call to see if other pharmacies have them. π We'll see how long I'm with out them.
That's awesome! I'm so excited to dive in.
