On the plus side, the narrator is different and already better. I hate to say that Rachel Leblang just didn't get the emotional tone quite right in a good chunk of the book or the hero's voice down IMO. I'm looking forward to Leblang's growth.

Mississippi is limiting access to library apps to 18 and up. They're also raising the minimum age for a library card to 18.
HOOPLA, OVERDRIVE/LIBBY NOW BANNED FOR THOSE UNDER 18 IN MISSISSIPPI

Welp, didn't read anything I was planning to, but I did finally listen to Live, Laugh, Lich by Kate Prior. There were a few "wait, what's going on?" things but it was okay. I was looking for a sexy monster erotica, and it was good enough to entertain me for the flight delay and couple hour plane ride. Got the next one in the series for the couple hour car ride.

Ask a rich man to give away 25% of his money, and he'll still be insanely rich. He won't even notice it's gone unless his accountants mention it.
Ask a family of 4 making $25k/yr to give away 25% of their income, and now they're homeless and hungry.
THAT is the real tax burden.

Apparently I never finished Sword Dance by AJ Demas??? Adding to my vacation #isreading list #QueerRomance
Current #LibbyApp #isreading shelf in preparation of vacation. Some of these aren't my usual go-to genres, so 🤞 I enjoy them for the plane. Support your local #library

I wish I had a better way to find titles in #LibbyApp similar to Frat Wars by Saxon James, especially #2 Master of Mayhem. Robbie is such a himbo 🤌 #isreading #QueerRomance

‘Murica.
Where you don’t know if the sounds you’re hearing outside are fireworks or gunshots.
Happy 4th of July.
May our fever dream be broken and we wake up to a nation built on the bedrock of peace, love, equality, compassion, humility, sustainability, truth, and progress.

A little-known program that aims to give low-income Minnesotans a chance to check out state parks for free is proving successful two years after it began, according to state Department of Natural Resources leaders. The Minnesota State Parks Library Program, which allows patrons to check out a one-week park pass at dozens of libraries around the state, is growing in popularity, with 3,180 checked out from June of last year through this May. https://www.startribune.com/free-minnesota-state-park-library-program-passes-growing-popularity-passes/600287122/
