PEN America has recorded the 2025-2026 school year as the highest number of recorded bans in a single year with 11,982 titles. A book doesnโ€™t become less valuable because someone or something finds its ideas uncomfortable. That is often the reason why we need these books. It Canโ€™t Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis is amongst these Banned Books. I felt it was particularly worthy to hold up right now, because it explains how democracy depends on people recognizing threats to freedom, and refusing to become complacent. Read critically, and most importantly READ THE BOOKS THAT THEY WANT YOU TO NOT READ!!!! A link to donate to the Prison Books Project will be located in the bio. This organization provides free books to incarcerated persons connecting with local bookstores to provide. Whoever you are, you DESERVE to read. Participating Bookstores: @binnaclebooks @oblongbooks If you are a bookstore that is supporting this initiative please leave a comment below! #bannedbooksweek #readbannedbooks #itcanthappenhere #readmorebooks by @bookedupriver

Last year, I did a challenge to start reading series that I had never read as a child. I went through Hunger Games, Twilight and many more fan favorites. Somehow, I completely forgot Lord of the Rings. An even crazier fact about this story is that I somehow managed to never see the movies AND avoid spoilers๐Ÿซฃ soooo we are going to turn this into a little series. I hope to finish Lord of the Rings by the end of October and you all are invited on my journey! I found this set at a Little Free Library in New Windsor, NY! #lordoftherings #bookedupriver #oopsie #firsttimereader by @bookedupriver

she has indeed made it out of her สณแต‰แตƒแตˆโฑโฟแต หขหกแต˜แตแต– Wanted to post this because I need to talk about this CUTE dragon that I got from @newyorkrenaissancefaire this year. This is the story: Itโ€™s my first time going to Ren Faire (ever). Iโ€™ve been missing out quite obviously. As Iโ€™m geeking out, I say to my girls โ€œokay we have to start in the back and make our way up.โ€ Once we have finished sprinting in our unconventional shoes, we see this stand. It was full of the CUTEST trinkets. As Iโ€™m writing this Iโ€™m actively trying to find the business card of the stand. If you sold this to me and happen to see this thank you so much. It has been such a beautiful edition to my bookshelf๐Ÿ–ค also happy (sad) threshing day to those who celebrate #flyordie ๐…๐ž๐š๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ž๐ ๐๐จ๐จ๐ค: ๐˜›๐˜ฉ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜‹๐˜ข๐˜บ ๐˜ฃ๐˜บ ๐˜™๐˜ฆ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ค๐˜ข ๐˜ ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ด by @bookedupriver
