I recently have learned that a lot of libraries have to continously pay a fee for e-books and audiobooks; for example they can keep them for x-months or they have a can be lent x-times before they have to renew their license, and while I understand this from a technical standpoint - e-media can be lent indefinitely and infinitely - I still think this is insane.
Granted I am very socialistic in nature but I think that libraries should be able to get media for a smaller price than we as customers (I understand that this might suck for some authors, but readers who are willing to wait weeks, if not months for a book were less likely to buy it anyway?)
What do you think? Any librarians can confirm this? also from other countries than the US? I couldn't find anything for my local library unfortunately.

re-reading in preparation of the sequel; I first read it in 2020 and loved it, I so hope it holds up, because I kept thinking about it over all those years. (so much so, that I gifted one of my besties a physical copy)

tbf this one is on me, I knew this wasn't going to be the most interesting read but by the gods, it was even worse than I imagined. This felt like a badly written Hallmark movie that belongs on wattpad. The writing was awkward, there were many repeat phrases and words, the plot was boring and the conflicts were no conflicts at all. AND IF I HAVE TO READ "her cheeks pinked" one more time, I will throw hands.

It's way more enjoyable if you just vibe. I'm not trying to understand the equations and PhD-ism of it all, I'm here for a good time, a giggle, and a gasp

Okay guys, I need your help, can you recommend me some good slow-burn books, that have some fantastic yearning? I tried looking through lists here, but haven't really found what I'm looking for. Bonus points if it is queer/sapphic. Oh, and I don't really care for genre as long as the slow-burn is good rn. thank you 🫰
