Returning to #booksky to say Broken Country by Clare Leslie Hall was so incredible I cannot stop thinking about it 😭

In this week’s “Dear James,” a reader writes in with a question: Why, even when reading a thoroughly enjoyable book, do they want it to end?

Really don’t know how I feel yet 🥲 does anyone have a good review I can read? #booksky

#EmilyHenry stans: Can someone please tell me if Great Big Beautiful Life has a happy ending *without* spoiling anything? 🙏🫣 #booksky

Read Kindred by Octavia Butler this weekend… another one I can’t believe I waited so long to read.

NEW: It's time to #FundLibraries. As we fight for the long-term future of federal funding for libraries in Congress & in the courts, it's critical that our elected officials CONTINUE to provide annual funding. Take action, tell your House Rep to fund libraries in FY26: bit.ly/FundLibraries26House

Finished Babel😭 hated the ending? But that was beautiful what a ride… #booksky

When one of my favorite characters dies, but comes back to life on the next page #booksky

Okay loving Babel so far... did not expect it to be as dense or as poignant as it is. I love the world-building and the relationship between the 4 babblers. I have no idea how it's going to end and I'm scared 🫣 #booksky

Crawling back to my HEA romances after a book that emotionally destroyed me #booksky

Happy Saturday from a very happy post pup cup Blue 🍦💙

It's officially #TakeActionForLibraries Day! To celebrate and advocate for libraries and library funding, we want every library lover to make their voice heard today. Head to ala.org/showup to take action by calling or emailing Congress, writing a letter to your local newspaper, and more!

Just had to lay on the floor and cry after finishing Shark Heart 😭 #booksky

Okay but why hasn’t anyone talked about how in the White Lotus season finale everyone was starting their book on the last day of vacation and only a couple pages in... iconic
