I loved the movie too! I actually saw it before I read the books. I think it's a great adaptation, it captured the book tonally but told a story that was better suited for the screen.

It's about time to take the ACs out of the windows, so it's time to get #knitting 🧶

If you're sick of scarves but scared of sweaters

Or if you just want a tasty one-day dopamine hit

May I suggest bike helmet ear warmers?

Makes fall/winter cycling more pleasant!

Today was rough! Having federal agents prowling in your neighborhood is awful. Grateful for everyone who did rapid response and tried to keep all our neighbors safe. I love Rogers Park so much. The huge community activation in response to the threat was hope-giving.
