Please enjoy my #birding adventure.

Just got my first @netgalley.bsky.social book to review and its @travisbaldree.bsky.social "Brigands and Breadknives!" I loved the first two books of his cozy #fantasy series Legends and Lattes. Be sure to check back here in a few days for my thoughts on it!

Started reading #TheWanderingInn on a whim. Guess I'm a fan now because I can't put it down. Currently at 1.33R. Crazy things just happened, and I have to head off to work soon! Ugh. #readingproblems 😬

I just finished reading this wonderful book by #ArunGandhi. The Gift of Anger covered a selection of life lessons Arun learned from his grandfather, the late Mahatma #Gandhi. Powerful lessons on a peaceful approach to living life. #reading #books #philosophy #literature

Breaking- HB3225 which would have set age restrictions at public libraries failed to pass the Senate deadline tonight. We are glad to know that Texas public libraries can continue serving patrons and allowing families to make their own choices.

Here are examples of specific cuts in North Texas libraries. Keep calling your Congress about IMLS. The 5calls app has a helpful script. www.star-telegram.com/news/local/f...
