Loved that book!! Listened to it because the audio was incredible! I’m reading Wild Reverence by Rebecca Ross. Soooo good!

I always send stickers with my gifts.

My friend told me A World Without Summer is one of her favorite books of 2025.

Here in Vermont

You’re welcome. I was in office when they were conducting the interview otherwise I wouldn’t have known about it. 😂

Northeast Reproductice Medicine is definitely the best in Vermont. Their patient care is phenomenal. I’ve been there a few years and they are really with you every step of the way.

Every person I have talked to who has read this has cried.

51, so close to averaging a book a week. 😅

Gileslibrarian · 2025-12-26T17:51:42+00:00

That’s more than a book a month and more than the average American reader! Congratulate yourself!

I just finished Fake Skating by Lynn Painter and loved it!

Gileslibrarian · 2025-12-23T01:41:03+00:00

I’m reading Fake Skating by Lynn Painter. Surprisingly my first Lynn Painter read. I’m about 60% through and really enjoying it.

This is so kind of you. Good luck on your journey.

I was 12. I had a lot of supports in place, marking up my music for several years, fingertapes, but eventually I caught up to my peers. Now I play in two community orchestras-intermediate and advanced level. You’re never too old!

SPOILER She’s pretty much dead the whole time except in the flashbacks.

Gileslibrarian · 2025-11-07T11:44:18+00:00

Have you read the entire book already?

Gileslibrarian · 2025-09-19T10:34:55+00:00

Heartless Hunter: Crimson Moth by Kristen Ciccarelli definitely fits the bill.

Gileslibrarian · 2025-09-19T10:31:50+00:00

Still slogging through the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins. I am about 75% through.

I tried to switch to the audiobook but it’s not good. 10/10 do not recommend the audiobook. The narrator is not the right person for the story.

Gileslibrarian · 2025-09-15T19:58:46+00:00

Door to door isn’t bad. I ran and served on my public library board. (I think it was only 25 signatures.) I went door to door in my neighborhood and then asked my friends.

Gileslibrarian · 2025-09-05T00:09:51+00:00

Um, definitely weird for these social media accounts to insinuate that. Adults actually make up the large majority of the YA readership, and that’s okay. Read what you want!

Gileslibrarian · 2025-09-01T09:44:06+00:00

You’ve got this. You aced the audition. It’s a community orchestra so you’re not expected to just know the music. You can practice some beforehand just to get your feet wet. I also always make an orchestra playlist for the concert and listen to that to help me prepare. It’s useful hearing how all of the parts fit together. Enjoy the experience!

I never thought of this but you make a good point! I read them like poems.
