My 12yo loved House in the Cerulean Sea so so much! Has anyone read Under the Whispering Door? Is it appropriate for a 12yo?
Where my library friends at? Any recs for a student who loved BLOOD MOON by Lucy Cuthew? #librarian #library #BookRecommendations
The dream!
I love this so much!

Dear Writers of Twitter: MORE HORROR FOR THE YOUNGENS, PLEASE. They want it all: demons, serial killers, betrayal etc. This is straight from the source. Give the children what they want. 🙏 Love, A teen librarian tired of hearing "not scary enough."
Whenever I come to Twitter now or even think about writing again, I feel panicked and defeated. I know it's irrational, I know everyone is on their own timeline, etc etc, but I don't know how to get back to a place of feeling excited and hopeful about writing.
I haven’t been on Twitter all summer, and although I’ve missed deal announcements and releases, it has been so nice.
Miss Rumphius vibes 💜
Yay Katie & Laurie!!! 📚♥️🎉
Anybody else [im]patiently waiting for the Mare of Easttown finale tonight?
I was planning to replace these posters, but after a student offered to pay for one, I’m thinking they must be old enough to be cool again????

Just got a query rejection six minutes after the submission😳That is a new record! Has anyone else experienced such lightening-speed?😩 #amquerying #nevermindthen #querytrenches #WritingCommmunity #kidlit #picturebook
I can't help but chuckle anytime I see a writer or illustrator's file titled, "______ final." Oh, you sweet, sweet optimist. 😸

Today is my annual Barnes & Noble marathon. Every year before the holidays, I spend a day going to every B&N store in NYC to sign all my books. I walk, bike, and take the subway to get around. I’ll tell you how I did at the end of the day. Wish me luck!

So this happened #NationalBookAward #AFirstTimeForEverything
