There are 4 novellas in this book, and so many genres are represented! Historical fiction, science fiction, detective thriller (with Holly Gibney!), and a realistic piece about a writer who is writing a western! That last one has a bit of horror, too. Thoroughly enjoyable! 📚💙

Delightful discovery: My brothers and I, over the last 40 years, and living in three different states - all use our childhood home phone number in various password situations. We learned this randomly at a family gathering. Mom was surprised. Us, not so much. #alwaysconnected #neverfarapart

In 5th grade recess,I read Judy Blume's Forever aloud to many Lutheran school kids. Someone told, and I got called into the office for a talking to. Rat, may you forever regret censoring my freedom of sharing information at that young age. You are the problem, rat, but you did not slow me down. 📚💙

Me, to another customer at the thrift store: How many black and white polkadot dresses is too many? She: Well, I'm a Disney fan, and I think Minnie Mouse, so I say never too many. She may not have been as convincing as she expected. Did not buy. #thrifting #conversationswithstrangers

Yesterday I had a gentleman come into the library. He came in anxious because he was trying to get govt. assistance and had forms he had to copy, fill out, and send. I spent a half an hour with him and we got it all done. He was so relieved to have it done. This is why libraries are important!

Yesterday, I fondly remembered my dear friend Leonard Nimoy, who would have turned 94. His legacy lives on in our hearts. Just days ago, Bill Shatner celebrated his 94th birthday — wishing him continued health and happiness. Live long and prosper, my friends.

Evening. As each day comes to an end, I wonder what is in store for the next. I fear it will be something to fear. I hope against hope that it will be something to give me hope. Fingers crossed for us all. 2025 #poetry #fear #hope

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks… “The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government. 🧵

This book made me think and scoff and cry. It made me angry (also jealous of her educational opportunities). Angry at the betrayal, torture, abuse, and death threats, and her *willful* return to that family fold. It also made me call my parents and thank them for not being lunatics. 📚💙 📚🎧

If we could all just sit down and enjoy some chips and salsa together (and maybe some tacos and brownies), I think we could achieve world peace. Please...
