Book no. 4: Void by Veronica Roth.
Book no. 3 for the year was Brandon Sanderson’s The Way of Kings. Long, but so worth it.
Book no. 2: The Star Scroll by Melanie Rawn. Read this with my mom during my childhood—Dec/Jan is now a time of ritual rereading of the books I shared with my mother during the times I knew and loved her best 🥹
The 1st book of 2026: Making It So by Patrick Stewart. Delightful listen!

I've been super terrible about using this account, and I haven't written a blog since December. BUT I have updated all the accounts everywhere to all be heyymrschipley. Follow along, if you'd like, as I navigate how to do this whole two library thing.

A smattering of what’s been happening in my libraries lately! Programming, bulletin boards, and getting myself organized. Which includes designating the giant yellow repair cart with an appropriate name.
Time for a book giveaway!
If you'd like me to mail you an advance copy of my Apr. '25 MG novel in verse THE TROUBLE WITH HEROES, follow & share this post. Bonus entry if you also reply w/ a pic from a recent hike!

I am so interested in this conversation! I love the concept of AI, but the how it’s built part bothers me. It could be such a useful tool, but ✨capitalism✨ undermines that.
I’m ready to leave this planet. Geeeeesh.
As a matter of fact, yes. 😍
My favorite novel is FINALLY being adapted into a show and I’m so thrilled!

The obsession middle school boys have with jumping to touch things has made this sign fall constantly now. I want to cry.
The vision for 2024 😎
