Canceled my hilton account this evening. Took 5 minutes. Wouldn't try online as they "lost connection" with my husband when he told them why he wanted to cancel. #hilton #ice #fascists

Relaxed, but charming--just like Lori Rader-Day her ownself. The cover art is almost as delicious as the writing.

A relaxed launch day for Wreck Your Heart. I put country music books for kids in the local little free libraries and then talked to Susanna Calkins about Dahlia Devine and country in Chicago at The Book Stall. I love talking to Susie, always fun.
I am Dolly Parton book for kids going into a little free library The story of country book for kids going into a little free library while a black dog refuses to look at the camera Bottle of Lynfred wine in front of two copies of Wreck Your Heart by Lori Rader-Day. You should read it. Wreck Your Heart is in good top-shelf company with books by Lee Child, Louise Penny, Richard Osman and Mary Dixie Carter

Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.
Post from Amanda Gorman’s Instagram that says amandascgorman Minneapolis, Minnesota For Renee Nicole Good Killed by ICE. on January 7, 2026 by Amanda Gorman They say she is no more, That there her absence roars, Blood-blown like a rose. Iced wheels flinched & froze. Now, bare riot of candles, Dark fury of flowers, Pure howling of hymns. If for us she arose, Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief, Crouches our power, The howl where we begin, Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater Of the worst of what we've been. Change is only possible, & all the greater, When the labour & bitter anger of our neighbors Is moved by the love * better angels of our nature.

I am happy to stay at any hotel that refuses service to DHS.

Here’s hoping this Minneapolis Hilton keeps it up.

If Hilton Hotels made it a policy, I would stay at Hiltons whenever I travel.

“No room at the Inn” is a biblical reference about immigrants (Jesus’ parents) being turned away. Not the government. Way to go, Hilton! The 3rd Amendment protects private entities from having to house the government.
