Last year my spouse and I moved into an old house with a sunroom facing the yard. When I read, I usually sit facing the yard in this room because the biodiversity is just astounding (my two main hobbies are reading and birdwatching, so in this way, it's a two-for-one hobby). Our yard also gets a chunky groundhog visitor, who we've named Eugene, and he has a whole backstory and a made-up daily routine before he graces us with his presence- usually every day around 9 am and/or 6 pm (when I do most of my reading). I would love to hear about everyone else's critter reading buddies or local critter friends!

Does anyone have recs that have good sister representation?? There are a few ive read that really touched my soul and would love to read more, I couldn't find a list but if someone knows of one name it below, thanks!

Examples: The Sullivan Sisters Next Time will be Our Turn

Why are they called poop sheets? Of all the things they could've been called... poop sheets...

It's been a bit since I made that "get to know you/friending meme" post here, and we've had a lot of new names and people that I've seen around regularly since then, so have a Get To Know You: PB Edition for today!

(optional) Favorite review you've either read or written:

Hey book besties! About a decade ago, publishing companies once had pocket sized or mini versions of popular books such as The Fault in Our Stars and If I Stay. There was also a limited mini edition of the Throne of Glass series too, which I am salty about not getting the whole series since they are now selling for about $100-300 each 🫠. I'm just curious to see if there's any publishers left that still do mini or pocket sized editions of their books?

Do you ever sit and think about the characters you read after the series is done or after their book is done if it's a standalone 🤔

What do you hope they're doing? Is everything fine? Or is everything sad?
