And for the lady, perhaps a trip to Miss Honey’s Cottage? 🌺 northavecandles.com/products/can...

Candle of the Month / Miss Honey's Cottage / Matilda
Escape to Miss Honey's Cottage where everything is welcoming and gentle. This soft, mild floral opens with the airy, natural sweetness of aster, honeysuckle, and wild grasses. The blooms are beautiful...

Happy birthday, Ray Bradbury, you were the king of dropping six-page stories a kid could read once in 7th grade English class and be haunted by for the rest of their life

My cartoon for this weekend’s @theguardian.com books.
A sunny day in the park. People jog, walk their dogs and sit in the shade of the trees. A woman sits on a bench and says:

“It's my perfect job, really! Their owners are busy people who love them but don't have time to give the attention they need.

Nobody likes to think of them just lying around the house all alone. 

So I pick them up bright and early and we spend the whole day in the park. 

I read a few chapters of each and drop them home with a short precis of what happened. Everyone's happy!”

She is reading a book and has a pile of six more beside her.

As someone who mostly reads horror, I'll never understand the vitriol towards "cozy" books. People say they are escapist, unserious, allowing readers to avoid big issues. And I'm like, girl, WHEN did your dark romance book fix society? Did I BLINK and miss your detective thriller solving crime?

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Libraries are vital, providing access to information, technology, and learning. Cutting IMLS funding threatens these services, especially in underserved areas. Library funding isn’t political—it’s an investment in education, opportunity, and civic engagement. #LibraryLove #ForOurLibraries ala.org
