haven’t been able to stop thinking about anxious people by fredrik backman since i finished it… a surprisingly salient read about love and community (and idiots) #booksky #bookrecs
Excerpt from Anxious People by Fredrik Backman, chapter 72: “The truth. There isn't any. All we've managed to find out about the boundaries of the universe is that it hasn't got any, and all we know about God is that we don't know anything. So the only thing a mom who was a priest demanded of her family was simple: that we do our best. We plant an apple tree today, even if we know the world is going to be destroyed tomorrow.”

if y’all catch me posting any crochet projects in the near future and want to know the vibes while i’m crocheting…. this is it #themagnusarchives
Smiling anime girl with headphones on and a yellow text bubble indicating the sound coming from the headphones. Text inside the bubble: “I do not know why the hive chose me, but it did. And I think that it always had. The song is loud and beautiful and I am so very afraid. There is a wasps’ nest in my attic. Perhaps it can soothe my itching soul.”

Grainy pictures of Britney Spears across an even more grainy sparkly pink background. Text: my loneliness is killing me, with “government” covering up the word loneliness.

enjoying my last book of 2023 📚💙
Screenshot from the app Libby. Cover of the audiobook “Hijab Butch Blues” by Lamya H, which depicts an illustrated woman in a hijab and sweatshirt facing away from the reader towards a sunset in the backdrop. Underneath, it says the length of the audiobook (8 HOURS) and the percentage read: 53%

who said library signage can’t be both functional AND festive? #publibs #libraries #librarian
Picture of a library card in front of some shelves in the children's section. Taped to the side of the cart is a picture that mimics the cover of Mo Willems' "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Sleigh!" Instead, it reads: Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Cart! At the bottom, it adds: 'The librarians will shelve these books for you!'

i am NOT, in fact, immune to propaganda (aka middle grade books with adorable covers) because i saw this on my goodreads feed and IMMEDIATELY sprinted to netgalley #books #reading #librarian
Book cover: “The Apartment House on Poppy Hill” by Nina LaCour & Illustrated by Sònia Albert. A young girl with auburn hair poses in front of a light pink Victorian-style house, while multiple other characters are visible from the windows.

just wanted to share this weird gem of an inner book page i found today at my #library while sorting through donations
Square image of text on a book page: “Do not loan this book out to neighbors and friends… If You Do You Will Never Get It Back Keep it in your Library… When You Are Not Reading It If You Want One Send to J.P. BURCH, VEGA, TEXAS And He Will Mail You One At Once”
