Can people let those that need to know (maybe in #florida) that you can order books digitally and read to your heart’s content.. like from Amazon, or Kindle, or Kobo .. or any number of places. If I’m not mistaken you can borrow books digitally from libraries - like in other countries. This insanity that’s going on in Florida needs to be challenged and stopped. #FloridaBookBan #florida #bookssavelives #booksaregood #Booksotdon

In my youth, and later as an adult, I enjoyed sharing and swapping #books with friends. It proved time and again that people who liked the same books I did understood me better and were closer friends.
Now I’m almost 60 and am noticing with sadness that most of my friends, old and new, don’t read the same books, or don’t read at all. It leaves me lonely and worried about the future, theirs and mine.

Hi #Booksotdon #bookloversofmastodon #readers among you .. I have a question: I am someone who has read A LOT.. who continues to read a lot.. I don’t keep my books. Why would I? And now I read on Kindle almost exclusively.. and there they pile up.. but over the years, every time we have renovated.. I’ve given away all my books.. because why not?

Can't Spell Treason Without Tea by Rebecca Thorne
⭐⭐⭐
"You like tea. I like books. Care to open a shop and forget the world exists?"
A super cute sapphic cosy read with just enough adventure.
The only drawback for me was that at it sometimes felt like the author overexplained things and it was a little infodumpy at times.
That said I'm excited to read Book Two which is predicted to be out in February 🥰

New episode snippet!
Fraser rises and places more material within the censer, and continual streams of scented smoke choke my own perception. At some point my vision becomes glassy, the figures around me blur. I feel Fraser stalking around the table, anti-clockwise … shouldn’t it be the other way? Isn’t widdershins for banishing? Or is it for calling up the devil?
