Dallas-based bookstore leading fight against Texas bill
Dallas-based Half Price Books is leading the fight against a bill being considered in Austin. The bill would allow bookstores to be sued for selling or even displaying harmful material to minors.

Finished Sunrise at the Reaping and my heart can’t take anymore! Haymitch Abernathy’s story is brutal, emotional, and twisted in the way only a Hunger Games book can be. It’s raw, intense, and impossible to forget.

We’re celebrating World Quantum Day with a classic makerspace project: thaumatropes! Just like superposition in quantum physics, this optical illusion shows how two images can exist in one space, at the same time. You might’ve seen the Google Doodle today. #WorldQuantumDay #GoogleDoodle #MakerSpace

Just finished The Half-life of Love by Brianna Bourne and I’m emotionally wrecked. Grief, time, and chemistry tangle into a heartbreakingly beautiful love story I won’t forget.

Using Dollar Tree garden labels as book feature signs! I write a quick blurb and stick them in the books on display. It helps students see what the book is about at a glance and boosts engagement! 📚✨ #Booksky #LibraryTok #LibrarianLife #SchoolLibrary #BookDisplayIdeas
