Took my daughter to my local No Kings event. We showed up, held a sign and an American flag. We showed up for those that couldn’t. Her favorite part was seeing all the inflatable costumes. Unicorns, a corn, a polar bear & broccoli all made her smile.

Denver showed up for the #HandsOff March. I haven’t seen any size estimates but the signs were on point.
“So bad even introverts are here” won from my 2 sided sign. Everyone wanted a picture and to laugh. #denver

Getting ready for a walk by Denver’s capitol today! Seeing images of others going for walks is making me happy. 1,2,3 LGB

Went to a bookstore yesterday! I only brought one of these beauties home. Can you guess which one?
*Hint* It’s not the cat in the sweater.

Knowing I get to approve ARC requests is the coolest. Hope it makes you just as happy to read as it does for me to see your joy.

Sunlight Playing Over A Mountain ARC Team is being finalized now. Apply before Friday.

One of the coolest things from my time on Booksta is as being chosen as a rep for Emily Cromwell Designs. I talk her art up whenever I can. 💕

So if you want beautiful bookish merch tell her Ruthie sent you - MUSINGS10

🫧 Self Care Saturday 📖
Today’s the first day in a long time with no plans! A nice hot bath with a great read was all I wanted to accomplish. April Asher is one of my comfort read authors. If she wrote it, I’m going to enjoy it.

Happy pub week to The Bones Beneath My Skin by TJ Klune!

Read this quote & tell me you aren’t hooked:

We’re separated by time and space. And yet, somehow, we’re all made of dust and stars.
I will never forget that.
You will never be alone because I will always be with you.

I didn’t make it to my local trump/musk protest so I donated to the ACLU. Lots of ways to show your support for democracy.

✨ TBR Tuesday ✨

Here are a few books from my TBR. I’m trying to read more books from my physical TBR bookshelf this year. I’ve highlighted two ARCs and two physical TBR picks.

Do you have any reading goals?

Signed back up for ResistBot @resistbot texts! I misread it as a dangerous prick.

Off to drink more coffee ☕️ and make some phone calls.

The vibes I bring to the function .

I’d like to think that I bring positive vibes with an edge of mama bear energy for my friends / family. I don’t trust easily but once I do, you get a dedicated friend.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5 Star Friday

Wow. I loved Onyx Storm. Onyx Storm was eloquent plus wit and snark that I loved. 🫶

I hope Rebecca feels accomplished and gets to revel in all that she’s built. Whenever book four comes I will be ready.

⚡️ Onyx Storm Silent Reading - Day 2 🖤

We have a new venue & animal companion today.

We have been within a paragraph of each other while reading which has been so much fun for our gasps & laughter.

Reading with a friend is honestly one of the best experiences.

Onyx Storm Silent Reading Party

We all brought our preferred format of Onyx Storm. We are cozied up by the fireplace with blankets and our books. Book besties are the best. 🖤📖⚡️

Are you back at Basgiath today?

All Downhill From Here, a small town, forced proximity romcom is a feel good, low conflict, stand alone novel. If you are in the mood for a quick, lighthearted winter read with banter and spice, get your hot cocoa and fluffy socks and head down to the quirky town of Slippery Slopes, New Mexico.
