yep!

My TBR just got a lot (digitally) heavier. Thanks, all!! #ewgc

Haven't gotten to it yet, but I keep staring at the cover. #ewgc

Next time I'm gonna remember to download covers. #ewgc

Just downloaded this! Interesting concept #ewgc

Another one I was really looking forward to: MATCHMAKING FOR PSYCHOPATHS, Tasha Coryell. I loved her previous book and loved this one too! #ewgc

She was a crossword clue the other day! I was proud I knew the answer. #ewgc

I tried to order this but it said publisher canceled? Maybe it was a glitch in Ingram? #ewgc

Haha! I read both of these - well, not quite done with SAINT. Both great! #ewgc

THE TRAGEDY OF TRUE CRIME was an affecting memoir that will alter your perspective on our prison systems. The author is currently a journalist writing from prison. #ewgc

I just downloaded that too! #ewgc

I need to stop commenting "I just ordered this" because I spent all day ordering LOL #ewgc

Haha another one I just ordered earlier today! Glad it's good #ewgc

I just ordered that for TPL! #ewgc

I will put in my first rec for THE NAMASTE CLUB by Asha Elias. A yoga retreat gone wrong for fans of NINE PERFECT STRANGERS. She's becoming one of my favorite authors. #ewgc

Aww, bummer!! I would so be down for hosting one. CCPL does theirs in fall, so it would be cool to do a spring one. But I don't know if I want to take on a new project now. #ewgc

Mine's been slow all day, but I think it's our network here. #ewgc

Today's my day off desk to order, so #ewgc feels appropriate. Don't have anything good to drink though.

Coming back from a small hiatus to do #ewgc today!

100%

I can't with this news whiplash. I have the headache that won't die. Please make it stop... at least the headache!!

What's Happening in Libraries? Battling misinformation

I wrote this post to combat some of the misinformation going around about IMLS/Ohio libraries. duskboundbooks.substack.com/p/whats-happ...

OK, I marked down the book. I hate that I have to use the Zon, but the price for other sites isn't populated yet. amazn.so/p5r3J0f

I've noticed a ton of misinformation on social media threads and I'm annoyed. Not that anyone will actually read it, but I'm making my book 99 cents for a little bit, once the changes actually populate. I only get a 35c royalty off those. Or I could go free?

I really gotta stop doomscrolling.

Honestly. Like, I'm paralyzed by national fear but also this is sending me down the spiral. Why change stuff at the state level while the federal government is breaking down?

Ohio's Republican Budget Proposal Destroys Library Funding, Restricts LGBTQ+ Books, Targets Library Trustee Terms Ohio House Republicans would require libraries remove LGBTQ+ books from sight of those under 18 while also slashing $100 in public library funding.

Paralyzed by fear. bookriot.com/ohios-republ...

Yep. Five of my six books.

GD Meta. Five of my books were used to train AI via their pirated database. I wish I could quit, but too much of my audience is there, and I lost a good portion when I quit Twitter.

#saturdaylibrarian until 6:15. Can I go home yet?
