me talking to random stangers: do you know about the libby app? it allows you to check out ebooks and audiobooks from your local library networks. libby can be installed on multiple mobile devices and opened on your desktop. i love libby so much and use it every day. you should too and you will also love libby.

US Book ban on LGBTQIA books

The Nationwide Book Ban Bill Moves to the House: How to Take Action Now

The nationwide book ban bill, HR 7661, has progressed out of committee and into the House. Here's what you need to know to take action.

At least hit the shiny repost button if you're going to do nothing else. This should not stand.

Stop the bill dead in its tracks. LGBTQIA people have a right to be represented in books.

2026 superwholock equivalent is Heated Rivalry, Interview With The Vampire, and somehow still Supernatural

Haven't seen much about this abhorrent bill on here so thought I should share this. Find your rep here.

Sample call script:

I’m calling to tell Representative __ to oppose H.R. 7661. This bill would pressure schools to remove titles that discuss lived experiences that some politicians find controversial. I don’t think trans people are controversial. Legal precedents such as the Miller Test and state-level obscenity laws already ensure that there are no inappropriate books on school shelves. It’s unacceptable to me as a taxpayer to see so much time and effort being wasted on legislation that won’t do anything to help students learn and grow.

MARCH 18, 2026 Update from Authors Against Book Bans:

Yesterday, HR 7661 passed the markup stage in committee, and will now be recommended to the US House of Representatives for a full vote. Authors, publishing professionals, and educators are well-aware of this bill and its dangers, but people outside the industry seem largely ignorant of it. We need that to change.

Call or email your representative in the US House and tell them to vote NO on HR 7661 when it comes up for a vote. Here are some links that can help you do that:
