The StoryGraph cover collage for the books I read in March 2025.

It's my birthday today and these are the books I read in March! Will probably finish another today, but please suggest more books for me to read!

Bringing out stuff to someone who can't access your store doesn't make you accessible. Also, if all businesses could have access statements on your website, I'd know if I can/I'd want to spend money when I get there.

Going to a coffeeshop and seeing someone else working on their book doesn't count as a writing session for you. I checked.

Thank you to my 436 followers plus my husband.

When you need to reach for something and your grabber's on the floor, write some words...

The Kid has a Drop Everything And Read day at school, and I'd like one, too.

I take it off and putting it back on is optional. Shorter books, I use the flap as a bookmark.

Cover of The Family Fang, by Kevin Wilson. This edition features two people running behind a white van. The van’s roof is stacked with luggage and boxes.

The Family Fang, by Kevin Wilson

Book mail (and letters from old friends) is the best mail.

Hi, I've only read Tell Me Everything, so far. Ministry of Time, All Fours, and The Safekeep are lined up, and I think I'll read the whole list this year.

I LOVED As You Wish. Took it on an actual road-trip, didn’t want it to end. I’ve said it’s the best audiobook ever since.

As I sat in the hallway of my kid's school today, I'm grateful she's a theatre kid and hasn't asked to bring a musical intrument home.

Just wrote four pages for a meeting at my kid's school. Need to stack like that for my book.

March is #CerebralPalsyAwarenessMonth. Very aware, thank you 💚

Yes, but I usually just leave with Daim bars (heath bars) and book storage.

Went to IKEA for a side-table. Left with 4 candles, 3 plushies, 2 cushions, 1 shelf, 1 art model, and 0 tables.

‘Mum, I liked that stranger who called you ‘the lady’ instead of ‘the wheelchair.’
‘Yeah, me too.’
Ableists, our families (and your families) hear the words you use.

Harriet The Spy, by Louise Fitzhugh

Writing and typing ground me in different ways. Sometimes, I need to write and sometimes I need to type. Today is a No. 2 pencil day.

I’ve added you. Seems your stacks are as varied as mine 📚

Yep, liked it a lot.

Everything: Take a walk and clear your mind.

Me, a wheelchair-user: I will not and I like clutter.

Out today and the kid saw a wheelchair sign.

♿️

‘Why’s the wheelchair-user sitting on the moon?’ She asked.

‘It’s stylistic,’ I said. ‘If they put a real one like mine up there, it would be too much paint or tape or money.’

Borrowed: Heartburn, by Nora Ephron (audio, finished already)

Bought: Good Dirt, by Charmaine Wilkerson (beautiful cover and first pages)

Mostly, Nora Goes Off Script by Annabel Monaghan and today I bought Good Dirt by Charmaine Wilkerson

If you're looking for companies to boycott and/or yell at, these are good ones. Just straight up evil.

Thank you! Just needed to hear that from a human.

If you're trying to figure out what to do right now, my advice is to just pick a thing that you think might be useful in some way, however small, and do it. Doing a thing leads you to doing another, bigger thing, and prepares you for that next thing.
