This is taking place in a library computer lab. You can tell by the software on the unused compilers. Just another reason why libraries are the best.

Can I Touch Your-- Uh, No? Okay Then
When a librarian must resist the urge to grab the patron’s tablet, fix the problem, and hand it back because that’s rude… but oh so effective.
Accurately-titled novels.
But romances are the “predictable” ones.
Book Review: Jane, Unlimited
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness!
I have been a fan of Kristin Cashore since I first discovered her book Graceling. (If you like fantasy, and books with a female protagonist go read it right now!) Once I finished that series I was so disappointed to find out she hadn't written anything else. So I was super excited when she first announced that she was writing another a book. Like some of the best news I got in an otherwise truly terrible year. I got to read this book early thanks to NetGalley. (The best thing that happened in a not so great week. Anyone seeing a pattern here?) And my goodness, this book did not disappoint! Jane is a recent orphan, who is just trying to get by. Until Kiran shows up. Kiran is a former tutor, and she invites Jane back to her family home, called Tu Reviens, on a private island somewhere off the coast of New York. This is where Jane's adventure begins. There are multiple endings throughout the book and each journey is more fantastical and weird than the one before it. I think that is what makes this such a great read though. You can have this story any you want it: adventure, spy thrillers, space pirates creepy children’s book. If you can dream it, this book probably has it. Despite being about some tough topics, such as the loss of a loved one, and trying to find a place to belong, this book makes it easy to handle these topics. If you are a fan of Sci-Fi (and especially Dr. Who) you need to read this book!

When a librarian finds that she could get to the bottom of the TBR pile if publishers, magazines, websites, and library patrons would just stop recommending new titles for one goddamned second.
WHEN I FIND OUT A BOOK I LIKE IS BEING MADE INTO A MOVIE
WHEN I GO TO THE THEATER TO SEE IT:
WHEN I LIKE IT:
WHEN I DON’T LIKE IT:
Be honest, frank and fearless and get some grasp of the real values of life… Read some good, heavy, serious books just for discipline: Take yourself in hand and master yourself.

I am haunted by all the editions of books that are prettier than the ones I already own.

“CAN YOU CHECK THIS TAX FORM FOR ME AND TELL ME IF IT’S RIGHT?”
Okay, here’s the problem with the idea that oppressed groups can “alienate allies” by not being nice enough:
You shouldn’t be an ally because oppressed groups are nice to you. You should be an ally because you believe they deserve basic human rights. Hearing “I hate men” shouldn’t make men stop being feminist. Hearing “fuck white people” shouldn’t make white people stop opposing racism.
Your opposition to oppression should be moral, and immovable. Your belief that all humans should be treated with equal respect shouldn’t be conditional based on whether or not individual people are nice to you.
