September is perhaps my favorite month. It's still warm enough to have summery, hot days, but by this point I'm getting ready to transition back to my 7 months out of the year wardrobe: boots, tights, sweaters, and layers. Boots and tights! Plus, my birthday is at the end of the month and a lot … Continue reading September is the best month

I probably can't really be an LCARS librarian since I'm stuck in the pre-warp drive for humans early part of the 21st century. Bummer. But if I could be an LCARS librarian I would. 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.

Actually, you should know what the Common Core standards are just because you're an American and … Continue reading Don’t throw out Anais Nin, it breaks my heart
I’m a YALSA Protege!
Fun fact: I titled this post then switched over to another tab and when I returned out of the corner of my eye, I thought I wrote, "I'm a Mazda Protege!" Friends, I am not a car. It's sad that I misread it when I wrote it. Let's move right along because I do want to … Continue reading I’m a YALSA Protege!
I’ve read 83 books this year so far
That's a lot of books. Many of them are YA which can be - but are not always - quicker reads than grownup books, and I listen to a lot on audio during my commute. There's some graphic novels thrown in there, too. Still! That's a lot of books. By the end of the year, … Continue reading I’ve read 83 books this year so far
