Everything is so hard lately. Hang in there!

He's amazing. He was at our state conference in May. He's truly an inspiration

I don't usually end up with much. In my head I want it more than I want the sales pitch. I usually walk by at a distance.

I hate it! I want the swag. But I didn't want to talk to anyone unless I really have questions.

You are amazing and everything will be fine. You got this!

Wow. That's awesome!

That's fantastic!

I just saw The Librarians today at WNED Studios as part of the Buffalo International Film Festival. If you haven't seen it and are against book banning (which you should be if you're my friend), you should go see it as soon as it is available in your area. Infuriating that this is happening in 2025!

What's Mrs Pierce Reading? Eternally Electric

Joey McIntyre wrote the forward. I listened to this and she reads it. It was like reliving my childhood. I grew up about 40 minutes from her. I was not aware of all her health issues later in life. A good read for those GenX. #mrspierceisreading #bookstagram #bookthreads #skybooks #librarian #books

What's Mrs Pierce Reading? It's Not My Fault

What's Mrs Pierce? Nat the Gnat

What's Mrs Pierce Reading? I read both of these when I was looking for a good story about responsibility. I went with Nat. #mrspierceisreading #bookstagram #bookthreads #skybooks #librarian #kidlit 📚👍

Mission accomplished!

Our home for the weekend. Maybe some biking. Maybe some running. Maybe some hot tubing. Definitely some wineing! #girlsweekend

The 25 Greatest Picture Books of the Century There’s been a revolution in children’s storytelling—and it’s not just that the stories are more diverse.

Just finished perusing this list on my prep time…
It has absolutely stellar book recs 📚👍
Some of my absolute faves are here. #ReadAlike recs are fab too.

This would be especially helpful for #TLsky & #skybrarians newer to Libraryland, wanting to know what they’ve missed.

What's Mrs Pierce Reading? Stuck

The next book in the popular @kayke series. Olive is at summer camp, and two of her good friends are fighting and keep putting Olive in the middle! #mrspierceisreading #bookstagram #bookthreads #skybooks #kidlit 👍 📚

What's Mrs Pierce Reading? Sunrise on the Reaping

Finished this Thursday night. Heartbreaking. No wonder Haymitch was so miserable! If you've read the rest of the Hunger Games, read this. #mrspierceisreading #bookstagram #bookthreads #skybooks #librarian

What's Mrs Pierce Reading? It. Goes. So. Fast.

Finished listening to this earlier this week. While I'm not a parent, I do work with the same kids for up to 6 years. They come to me as babies in UPK and leave me as people in 4th grade. The days are long but the years are fast! #mrspierceisreading #bookstagram #bookthreads #skybooks #librarian

Poor kid.

I'm always happy when I see your posts. Stay safe and be well. We'll be here when you're ready to come back.

What's Mrs Pierce Reading? Hello, Molly!

She had such a complicated childhood. Her dad was a piece of work! I don't know if I could've loved him unconditionally the way she did. I guess it all made her who she is. And I find her incredibly funny and intelligent. #mrspierceisreading #bookstagram #bookthreads #skybooks #librarian #books
