Book 1 is Silk & Steel by Ariana Nash (Adult Fiction). An epic fantasy enemies-to-lovers M/M romance between an elf and a dragon. Happy 2025!

Book 101 is Love At First Fright by Nadia El-Fassi (Adult Fiction). I absolutely loved this spicy romp between a horror writer and the actor who stars in one of her movies, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved the ghosty side story.

There's been a lot of discourse on this app the last few days about postpartum bodies, and I just want to remind you that more often than not, pregnancy will irrevocably change one's body, for better or for worse, regardless of what you do.

Woke up to this depressing email from Book Trust in my inbox. Kidlit should be as diverse as the children who read the books. These are appalling statistics

I love a change-of-life baby story. My coworker told us his siblings were 19, 21, and 23 when he was born. His mom was 54 and thought it was menopause. She went to the doc to see what she could do about managing her hormones and doc said, "Nothing until after the baby comes." 😳

Please read Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver. It is the best commentary I've read on rural poverty vs urban poverty.
City poor is absolute worse. Country poor there is always somewhere to stay, some land, some house, some inheritance. City poor is way closer to being unhoused and being unhoused is almost impossible to come back from

Answers to frequently asked questions: He's 7. 2nd grade. 2 recesses every day. I do not know his betrothed. They used to sit at the same table. He's had a crush on her for a week and has written her letters. He wore a collared shirt today.

*UPDATE* "Did you get married today?" "It didn't go as planned. People who weren't invited AKA the whole grade came and we didn't invite everybody." "Are you going to try again tomorrow?" "We wrote letters during reading and have a date tomorrow." "During which recess?" *shrugs*
