I know I am about as biased as possible on this but go to an indie bookstore. An indie bookstore's vibes are the opposite of...all of this. You'll be surrounded by memories, stories, brave visions of the future that don't ignore our barbarous present. Your brain can be quiet AND full. Seriously.

This whole thread. Every word. Reading aloud to children is a responsibility - and a joy.

I'd like to once again remind you for #BannedBooksWeek that Huckleberry Finn and Animal Farm don't need you to go out of your way to read them. Instead, support a book, and author, who a ban can actually hurt.

It is the hardest path. I am so sorry you are walking it. All of us on it with you have had these exact same thoughts. You are not alone even though it feels so desperately lonely.

The Strange Disappearance of Imogen Good is a fantastic middle grade mystery - spooky twists and turns that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. One of my favorites of the year! Keep an eye on @nosycrowus.bsky.social - some amazing books coming out of there.

Glad to see Blake Butera sitting players when they don't hustle. Thanks for the great story, Jesse.

I have adopted the position that my flyers might be decidedly not-great, but no one will mistake them for AI!

With all due respect, Senator, DO something. These social media posts are getting pretty tedious. You are a United States Senator. Take action.

@metallowrites.bsky.social is a fresh voice in YA. I loved her debut, Reasons to Hate Me, and her new book continues her stellar work. I can't wait to hand Hearts on the Table to readers who like twists and turns in their historical fiction, with a delightful nod to Shakespeare. A winner. #YAlit

Oh! Also The Fire, the Water, and Maudie McGinn by @sallyjplabooks.bsky.social - just fantastic.

Sara Hudson @saraphudson.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

I would add Wombat Waiting by @kaaauthor.bsky.social and Spark by @baronchrisbaron.bsky.social - both are excellent.

Preschoolers are the very best. I taught 4s for a long time and I had some of the most interesting, heartfelt conversations of my life with those little humans.

I love this book! I used it every year in my preschool classroom to talk about standing up for each other. So impactful.

Love this series! I cannot keep it on the shelf in my bookstore - and adults laugh just as much as the kids!

Sara Hudson @saraphudson.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

I can tell you that in the bookstore where I work, middle grade readers are looking for scary - horror, murder mysteries, etc.
