The saddest and most difficult decision I’ve had to make yet. Bleak House Books is CLOSING. Our LAST DAY will be Friday, 15 October 2021. I’ve written a lengthy explanation about how and why it’s come to this. Please read it. #香港人加油 blog.bleakhousebooks.com.hk/…
I’ve seen “stick libraries” for dogs (So cute, but, honestly, does any dog ever leave a stick? Lookin’ at you Mr. Golden Retriever😂🤦♀️), but this is also a great idea! #KnowYourNeighbors #BeNice #LetsShare

(TOH to @JDinRI for bringing this to my attention.)
WATCH: John Lewis tearfully accepting National Book Award. He couldn't get a library card in 1956 because the library was "for whites only".
Love that there’s so much wildlife here in #Providence. On recent walks I’ve seen a juvenile coyote and a geriatric (or maybe infirm?) hawk! Plus, I spent many hours watching the Peregrine falcon nest on the Superman building via the @RIAudubon webcam.

Lucky Little Free Library! It’s got a grand site next the Pawtuxet River in Warwick, RI😉😉 Right next to the Aspray Boat House, headquarters of the Gaspee Days Committee. Read about the burning of the HMS Gaspee (months before the Boston Tea Party): bit.ly/2YyyCO5

Not to make light of a serious subject, but maybe the corona virus will bring back good personal hygiene AND reading for pleasure...
I've heard that coronavirus is going to cause a massive shortage of books, which will be essential when we're all stuck at home, so it's very important for everyone to rush out and start panic-buying novels. Thank you.

The Center for Reconciliation on North Main Street in #Providence invites you to drop in to their book club. They’re reading “Just Mercy” by Bryan Stevenson. Details here: bit.ly/2wG59Hp
TOH to @JohnnyVillella for this showing up in my .@atHomeinProv twitter feed! So lovely. #AdoptDontShop #ShelterDog
How cute is this....
Fairhaven sisters spend their Saturday mornings reading stories they have written and illustrated to the dogs at the Fairhaven Animal Shelter. 🐶
You’ll meet Brielle and Brynn Friday on @wpri12
