Reader Interactions

  • I really enjoyed reading #whispernetwork by @chandlerbakerbooks. It’s got some great, strong female characters who find themselves in a rough situation, but one that can often happen in the workplace. #femalefriendship #reesewitherspoonbookclub #summer2019 #greatsummer2019reading #summer2019reading
  • When the library tells you they have a book you might like and then you realize it is volume 10 of your favorite current graphic novel series, you might just scream a little. #giantdayscomic #giantdays #10volumes #estherdegroot #giantdaysvol10 #bestgraphicnovels #locallibrary #awaitingomnibuses #loveyourlibrary #supportyourartists

  • My coworker today looks almost as happy as I am to be working on a Saturday at the m-f job. But I got to cover a vacation, so it’s good karma. #phoebe #phoebekatz
  • I thought I completely blocked out an eBay order... Nope! My brother sent me this, convinced it was in my wheelhouse. I love surprises from him because he is so incredibly thoughtful....
  • Taking part in a game of thrones re-read and taking this opportunity to read the #iBook #enhancedversion. I get maps, details about other @george_r.r._martin_got works and #housedetails. I’ve read the series before, but I like digging deeper into it now. #got #anyonereadingthese? #ebooks #HouseStark #thenorthremembers🐺 #beyondthewall
  • This was in #clearance at @target! Cannot believe I finally get the chance to pick up a #squirrelgirl of my own! I am really excited for the #marvelrising series and I love that #doreengreen now lives amongst my books and notebooks. Maybe I’ll even get a few #graphicnovelrecommendations from her! #squirrellife #marvelrisingsquirrelgirl #lotsofbandstocut #graphicnovels #actiondolls #marvelrisingsecretwarriors
