Glad to see so many #BookTube traditions like #FridayReads being carried over to #BookSky! My FridayReads is Helene Hanff's "84, Charing Cross Road". I needed a break from all the history I've been reading lately. It hits the spot. 💙📚
Happy #FridayReads! Please share what you're reading right now and/or this weekend so we can build a great recommendations list for each other.

Please share this post, too.

My own selection will be CLEAVAGE by @jennyboylan.bsky.social.
