    This one was uncharacteristically boring and seemed like the odd story out until the last page or so? Cute ending tho.

  • Librarian's lament :(

    Hi all. I'm having some big feels today and I thought, who better to commiserate with than Boundlings?

    I work for a small public library in the US. We have been fighting our governing body on a monthly basis, begging them not to cut our funding, but last night our luck finally ran out. We will be losing roughly 1/3 of our total budget for the upcoming fiscal year.

    As is the case in many other libraries worldwide, we're already operating on the thinnest margin possible, so bearing the brunt of such a sweeping reduction is going to HURT. Our staff members are underpaid and don't have benefits, our building hasn't been renovated in something like 60 years, and we don't have nearly enough space or money to consistently serve our patrons/community in the ways they deserve.

    I'm not really going anywhere important with this thread - I just feel extremely disheartened, scared, and annoyed. An alarming percentage of the general public is functionally illiterate and you're eliminating LIBRARY FUNDING as your first line of defense?! What a world.......................

    E-Book/Reader Organization (Kindle vs Xteink) 📚

    I recently switched from Kindle to Xteink X3 and am curious how others organize their ebook collection on their e-readers. I mostly relied on book cover images for Kindle navigation, but the Xteink is primarily text based aside from the home screen. (I’m using the CrossPoint firmware) Do you keep your entire ebook collection on the e-reader? Or just the currently reading/TBR? Separate into folders by genre or other? My disorganization is also a symptom of my TBR book hoarding… so maybe that’s what I need to address first.

    Pebbles & Friends

    The extraordinary nature of friendship with these clearheaded friends: they do not get distracted by my pebbles of questions and thoughts, and they do not indulge me in pebble-mongering. A pebble is a pebble, which will not get more due than it deserves. If I aspire to live by intuition and logic, these are the friends who are more intuitive than I am when intuition is needed, more local than I am when my reasoning falls short.

    Yiyun’s friends are goals as both a village and how to be a friend in the future. I have never heard of a village handling such tragedy with such clarity and grace.
