PSA: Because of readers’ support, this Independent Bookstore Day was not only the largest Bookstore Day ever for so many bookshops, but their biggest day of sales ever. We at Libro.fm also had our biggest day of sales ever, all of which supported indie bookshops across the globe.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

PSA that we can support both our independent bookshop AND public library ❤️
They play such a vital role in our local communities, and they both need our support to stay open and keep offering valuable resources.
It's not either/or, but both/and 🥰

When AOC and Adam Kinzinger are both furious at Chuck Schumer, for the exact same reason, maybe you need to give up the idea this is just a backlash coming from far left activists.

When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations.

So let me see if I have this right - hundreds of thousands are getting/have been laid off, the economy is about to nosedive from tariffs, a measles outbreak is currently spreading with bird flu waiting in the wings, and now he wants to blow up the farm industry?
And this is going to make us great?

We're DRM-free, meaning you actually own your audiobooks. You can download the files whenever, & listen to them wherever.

Banned/challenged books are often difficult reads with jarring content, but we can't shield ourselves nor our children from the realities of the world forever - it's better to build empathy and understanding through books, especially by reading books by/about marginalized people.
