Good morning literary community! ☕️ If you could have any author (living or dead) join you for coffee today, who would it be? Let’s hear your picks!

Pratchett should be taught in schools. Or out of schools. Or everywhere, really. Highly recommended! #booksky #discworld
Terry Pratchett's "Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socio-economic unfairness". The best quote I've ever read about why being poor can be so expensive.

Did you know you can have a library card for more than one library system? Very handy when using the #LibbyApp #booksky @libbyapp.bsky.social
If you don’t have a library card go get one. Even if you don’t plan on using it right away, go get one. Keep our libraries alive.

Started out 2024 by reading "System Collapse" by Martha Wells (Murderbot Diaries!) and ended the year with "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow" by Gabrielle Zevin.

The timeline feature of @libbyapp.bsky.social (to get e-books from you library) is great. I read more in 2023 than in 2024. But the numbers are a bit deceiving: 23 books in 2023 and 14 in 2024. The numbers are a bit high since they also include all the books I checked out but never finished. 😱
