Another one I was really looking forward to: MATCHMAKING FOR PSYCHOPATHS, Tasha Coryell. I loved her previous book and loved this one too! #ewgc

THE TRAGEDY OF TRUE CRIME was an affecting memoir that will alter your perspective on our prison systems. The author is currently a journalist writing from prison. #ewgc

I will put in my first rec for THE NAMASTE CLUB by Asha Elias. A yoga retreat gone wrong for fans of NINE PERFECT STRANGERS. She's becoming one of my favorite authors. #ewgc

Today's my day off desk to order, so #ewgc feels appropriate. Don't have anything good to drink though.

Coming back from a small hiatus to do #ewgc today!

OK, I marked down the book. I hate that I have to use the Zon, but the price for other sites isn't populated yet. amazn.so/p5r3J0f

I've noticed a ton of misinformation on social media threads and I'm annoyed. Not that anyone will actually read it, but I'm making my book 99 cents for a little bit, once the changes actually populate. I only get a 35c royalty off those. Or I could go free?

GD Meta. Five of my books were used to train AI via their pirated database. I wish I could quit, but too much of my audience is there, and I lost a good portion when I quit Twitter.

Dear Congress, Libraries are the place we all belong. The place where Mister Rogers’ neighbors collide at the library to help one another. We come together to embrace library joy. What good is the world without libraries and museums? ❤️‍🩹 Call, email Congress! Help libraries & museums! We need you 💛

My brain is full of anxiety today. I stupidly scheduled events way too close together. Already attended two and have one every day until Pi Day. Not to mention the existential dread!

My coworker's daughter's job got cut in the federal nightmare. She has exorbitant rent in DC, and without healthcare, she won't be able to afford her lifesaving meds. I hate seeing my coworker so devastated, and my heart aches for her daughter. Every day is an attack on more American lives.

I am also reading Samantha Downing's TOO OLD FOR THIS, and I don't want it to end. Lottie Jones is pushing 80 and still hiding murdery secrets--but people are on to her. #ewgc

#ewgc I just finished Olivia Dade's ZOMROMCOM, a super-cute spicy paranormal romance. Edie has always lived in fear of the zombies, but when they attack in earnest, she must pair up with her brooding vampire neighbor to defeat them.

I'm in the middle of weeding a gigantic amount of grubby books. Excited to get back from discarding and see what everyone is posting about #ewgc

Here for GalleyChat #ewgc so if you see a bunch of weird posts from me, that's why. Water is my beverage of choice today. I drank a French press coffee this morning and made it way too strong.

Cari Dubiel @caridubiel.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

I am so scared about everything that I'm freaking out my family with my panicking. If you have a good way to cope, please share. I can't find anything to hope for anymore.

ICE already came to Sleepy Hollow, NY. THAT Sleepy Hollow. My friend is a library director nearby and got an email about to prepare. I'm so scared.

They're already censoring content. Support Olivia Dade (one of my fave authors) and get her books while you can.

I can't find the printer paper to print labels for my book orders. It's probably too cold to take them to the post office anyway. I just feel bad that these aren't in the mail yet.

Another Booklist read I really loved: THE BRIGHT YEARS by Sarah Damoff. Narrated in three different perspectives through the years of a tumultuous family. #ewgc

Cari Dubiel @caridubiel.bsky.social · 02/01/2025

I am reading PORTALMANIA by Debbie Urbanski. It's a collection of sci-fi stories centered around other worlds. I loved AFTER WORLD, and I'm loving this collection too. #ewgc

While I'm hanging on BlueSky, I might as well do some shilling of my book. I LOVED THE MOTHMAN is a collection of short stories, each about a different cryptid. You can get it here or anywhere books are sold. beventi.co/orderform/q6...

TILT by Emma Partee may be a bit close to home for today, so take my word for it and check it out. Another Booklist assignment I loved. #ewgc

Cari Dubiel @caridubiel.bsky.social · 05/12/2024

Another one I loved - SO HAPPY TOGETHER by Olivia Worley. Protagonist is borderline stalking a guy she dated for three weeks, but she may not be the dangerous one. #ewgc

Cari Dubiel @caridubiel.bsky.social · 05/12/2024

Highly recommend FAMOUS LAST WORDS by Gillian McAllister. I get so excited when she has a new one out! This one is about a woman whose husband isn't who she thinks he is... and she finds out in a most shocking way. #ewgc
