Arianna Smith @ariannasmith.bsky.social · 10/07/2026I hear the frustration of staff going beyond the will of electeds, but the professionalized committee staff is so SO important to making sure that what gets out of committee will actually work in statute.

Arianna Smith @ariannasmith.bsky.social · 05/05/2026RIP John Seymour. He visited my classroom in 5th grade and talked about being a Senator to help Californians.

Arianna Smith @ariannasmith.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Epilogue/ending wrapped it up in a deeply satisfying and hopeful way. Will definitely recommend this book!! no need to respond, just, I know it can be nice to know that one’s work resonated 🧡 happy writing! 010
Arianna Smith @ariannasmith.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Big applause for your writing of the villains. It’s hard to make a reader feel so much anger and disdain for a hive without names (as opposed to one strong antagonist) but you did it so well! They were so dangerous and horrifying yet also so absurd. And memorable. 110
Arianna Smith @ariannasmith.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Fantastic tight 3 act structure. I haven’t read a book in a bit that was so disciplined in this and it felt refreshing. Or like, as unmoored and unfairly thrown away from purpose as the characters seemed to feel, kept the plot itself moving along well. Sorry if this doesn’t make a ton of sense? 110
Arianna Smith @ariannasmith.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Finished the book. Just wonderful. The right book to read at the right time. I loved every character. Jada’s loneliness stood out so sadly for me, and I truly loved the switch from the moment she really truly lost every *thing* but also in that hit-bottom moment she gained and accepted her friends. 110
