Author: lcarslibrarian

Or I would work in Stellar Cartography. Or is there a library on Battlestar Galactica? For now, I'll just stick to reading books, writing, and earth-bound YA librarianship.
I hope to use this blog as a way to write book reviews for myself and others, and to write about librarianship.

I've been having some anxiety about the world, our garbage-fire racist sexist President, and work and health stuff. That's been … Continue reading Coming out a reading slump

Also, I got a message from someone on Goodreads - hello new friend! - who asked me about my experiences. She was just asking for some general tips … Continue reading I still like D&D at my library
