For the love of all that is good in this world do NOT buy books from Amazon. Cancel your Amazon accounts.
Go to the Library (in person or online ebooks!) and support local bookstores instead. Please #BookSky don’t be ambivalent

That feeling when you fall back into reading and suddenly, life feels a little brighter. ☀️📖✨

i need coffee so dark it whispers “nothing matters and we’re all gonna die” as i sip it.

It is obviously fine to be reading three books at once and have two more arriving today. I have great self-control on this front.

Also I don't have a problem with non-nerdy people who are just in it for the smut but don't act like I'M the weirdo if I want to cosplay a dragon rider and discuss the worldbuilding

The Fourth Wing fanbase confuses me because I'm over here geeking out over the dragons and lore but when I meet another fan they're a romance reader who looks a little scared they strayed into the SciFi world because they just came for the smut

Trying to finish Iron Flame so I can start Onyx Storm. I'm really enjoying Iron Flame though!! DRAGONNSS

tell me what you're reading. i want to talk books and joy.

love, me

I would literally rather be fighting for my life as a cadet in Basgiath than dealing with any of this bullshit

I joined Truth Social to get a glimpse of Trumplandia and am now doing the lord's work there

Please don't take and toss books you don't agree with from your local free little libraries even if they're religious or right wing. Please just add the books you want to see represented. Otherwise you're just as bad as the people who ban/censor books!

One way to resist? Read more, use the library, buy from local bookstores, post reviews, talk about the books you're reading, read banned books. Anything to do with reading, and books, they seem to hate. Stay educated, and continue reading.

It’s a wonderful day to visit your local used bookstore and buy some banned books 🥰

I already cared about resisting because I'm an ally for trans people and immigrants but now that this dumbass of a president has made decisions that affect my morning coffee *cracks knuckles* I'm prepared to revolt violently

Writing children’s books which promote empathy is my act of rebellion.

Friendly reminder a lot of local libraries have a "library of things" you can loan, such as musical instruments and cookware and tools, without having to buy them. That's the kind of good they do for their communities.

I don't know about the rest of y’all but when I was in junior high there were (not library) books with "naughty" parts that we passed around. You can't control young people's curiosity, but you can help them make good choices and many librarians are experts at recommending books for all ages.

Holy heck this sounds awesome #IBDclub

I have lived in my town for over a year and haven't made use of the library system (shame on me), so I went to the library with my spouse today and we got library cards and checked out a bunch of books. And then we shopped at the friends of the library bookstore!

I didn't know that about L&L! I'll have to check it out right away. Love the Sapphic reads

I need someone to tell me their favorite LGBTQ+ books so I can stock all my local little free library books with them

No one is illegal on stolen land.

You’ve heard it a thousand times, and it still rings true.

Do not comply.

Just a reminder: empathy is not weakness.

Escapism is healthy in small doses. Let it refill your cup. Then get back to work - we can't fall into complacency.
