Has there been a mass exodus to the place where the skies are of a colour that makes purple if you mix it with red?? Come say hi x

Wise words ⬇️ #RaisingReaders
If you want kids to love reading, show them that YOU love reading! Make books central to everything you do. Always share books, talk about books, help them find new books to love. Never judge their choices, and read to them every day. It'll change their lives forever! #literacy

Ne'er a more apt word of the day 💔
Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

Friends, I can’t stomach this place much longer. Where should I go for random chats with good folk and all things bookish? Should I use threads? I’m on the place up high that is blue but haven’t figured it out yet. I work from home so need the chats, help please 🫶🏽

The electoral college was created by slave owners for slave owners. It needs to be destroyed. #ElectionDay

Gutted. Absolutely gutted. I mean, the college electoral system is so out of date but how can you ever win an election when people vote for themselves before the good of everyone? Humans really are selfish. My thoughts with the Americans who just wanted a safer future 🩶

UK folk with kids, it's half term, might I recommend reading #TheWildRobot by @itspeterbrown And then a trip to the cinema to watch the film that it's based on? You won't regret it, for kids and grown ups alike 🏝️🤖💙
My boys are 14 & 11 and we’ve been longtime @itspeterbrown fans since I bought My Teacher is a Monster on a whim when the 14yo was little. Mr Tiger Goes Wild was another banger. And then #TheWildRobot books came out, oh how we loved them. So we were trepidatious about the film…

I got used to the lack of speech marks/punctuation in Normal People etc This time there are hardly any paragraphs either & I'm really struggling. Web content is my job, I know our habits change when reading print vs digital content. Reckon I'm just a digital reader now 😵💫

Finished the audiobook of #TheVerySecretSocietyOfIrregularWitches by @SanguMandanna today. Thoroughly enjoyed this cosy, witchy story with found family and a touch of romance. Now I’m desperate to see some #FanArt especially of #MikaMoon and Jamie 😍
