March StoryGraph wrap up: accidentally started an impromptu book club in my small town library because someone saw A Half Built Garden after I returned it, read it, recommended it to someone else, and now we have a chain of people interested in hopepunk book recs in these trying times. 💙📚

On a pastel purple background, logos for Reproductive Equity Now, 603 Equality, New Hampshire Youth Movement, and NH Outright appear at the top of the graphic. Black text with a white shadow in the middle reads, “SB 96 - the most extreme forced outing bill this year. This bill requires anyone who works in a public school to answer “honestly and completely” to parental inquiries., aka forced to report on anything they might hear directly or overhear, including information about students’ sexual orientation, gender identity, or questioning status. This puts public school workers in an impossible position of having to either record or remember everything they might overhear in a school day. Instead of writing a bill that says simply, “teachers shouldn’t lie to parents”, the creation of this level of surveillance at school creates a difficult learning environment. Everyone deserves the right to be themselves at schools. LGBTQ+ youth should be able to come out to their parents when they are ready. Sign in + Show up! Oppose SB 96 Tuesday March 4th Public Hearing 9 AM Legislative Office Building Room 100.”
Next week we’re facing an onslaught of anti-LGBTQ+, especially anti-trans, bills at the state house. @reproequitynow.bsky.social @nhyouthmovement.bsky.social

February StoryGraph wrap up: Requested an ILL for the last Murderbot Diaries book, changed it up a little and read two LONG books instead of mostly novellas like last month, & listened to two (non-fiction! 😮) audio books — overall, a pretty solid month. 🪐📚💙

January StoryGraph wrap up: I read every Murderbot Diaries novella & book that I could get my hands on and loved them all. I’m not sure why I haven’t read them before, but they feel very similar to the gritty hopecore-esque worldview in Becky Chambers’ books. 🪐📚💙
