If you don't have a local indie, check out the map of participating bookstores & make an online or phone order with one of them. Or buy from @bookshop.org (they have e-books now!) or @libro.fm. www.indiebound.org/independent-...

Remember that they have never directly competed with #IndependentBookstoreDay before. They're doing this because they're scared. Who's scared them? YOU have, by beginning to move your purchasing away from their monopoly. Keep it up! Visit your local indie on 4/26.

This is a weird request, but anyone in Baltimore area want to help me collect tap water samples this summer? I can give you some vials, you go to a couple restaurants/grocery stores/public water fountains and we get some critical science done for forensic work

Go Luck Yourself: A Royals and Romance Novel
DELUXE EDITION--featuring stunning shamrock green sprayed edges!It’s enemies to lovers in this sexy and delightful holiday mash up that pairs the spare prince of Christmas with the crown prince of St. Patrick’s Day!Someone has been stealing Christmas’s joy, and there’s only one clue to the culprit—a single shamrock. With Coal busy restructuring Christmas—and their dad now having a full midlife crisis in the Caribbean—Kris volunteers to investigate St. Patrick’s Day. His cover: an ambassador from Christmas to foster goodwill. What could go wrong? Everything, it seems. Because Prince Lochlann Patrick, Crown Prince of St. Patrick’s Day, happens to be the mysterious student that Kris has been in a small war with at Cambridge. They attempt to play nice for the tabloids, but Kris can’t get through one conversation without wanting to smash Loch’s face in—he’s infuriating, stubborn, loud, obstinate, hot— Wait—hot? Kris might be in some trouble. Especially when it turns out that the mystery behind Christmas’s stolen magic isn’t as simple as an outright theft. But why would a Holiday that Christmas has never had contact with, one that’s always been the very basis of carefree, want to steal joy? Can a spare prince even hope to unravel all this, or will Kris lose something way more valuable than his Holiday’s resources—like his heart?

One of the first years that I'm not watching the Super Bowl because I really didn't need to be sold anything and most of those companies really don't care about me. But the only commercial I've seen so far during the Puppy Bowl: Superman trailer features the only acceptable Krypto! Yes please.

My favorite part about the Puppy Bowl is this camera at the bottom of the water bowl so we can see who's drinking and who's playing in the water. These puppies are so stinking cute.

Just a reminder that the books we call "children's books" are really books written for an audience that includes children, but excludes absolutely no-one at all. They are BOOKS FOR EVERYONE - and you can never, ever be too old to read them, and to love them!

Look, the next few years are going to be hard. It’s going to be exhausting trying to keep up with all of the noise and distractions. So make sure to enjoy things. You cannot be all fight. You need joy as well. And do not let people make you feel guilty for finding moments of joy. That is bad.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

The first read through a few years ago took me years ... I did audio this time and that didn't change the feeling I was trudging through but I liked it enough to keep going and start the second book today.
