@KurtDinan My students want hard copies, when I want something immediately I get it as an ebook but also prefer audio and hard copy when I can. Library hard copies are great to return when done. For ARCs, I prefer hard copy when possible.

Now I am thinking about how to combine words and emotions ...

Someone just wrote me to say that A Madness So Discreet made them "upsetty spaghetti." I love the phrase and I'm going to use it everyday, twice a day. Until someone stops me. I'm betting that's tomorrow.

@kierstenwhite i tootally do the weird neck craning pretend to tie my shoe and look up at their book cover thing. Did this once in a customs line at the airport - girl was reading something i loved to which I said "oh my gosh, that's a good one!" her: silence. 😬

[RB Hayes LRC @RutherfordReads]

Yes! I’m always that person flipping my head upside down and staring creepily at the cover...

I've read lots of junk arguing humor is a masculine trait OR men are inherently funnier (written by men. Gee). Interviews/surveys upcoming, but for now:
What are your favorite funny PB/MG/YA written by women/non-binary authors? Hoping for all sorts of humor in many sub-genres.

[RB Hayes LRC @RutherfordReads]

Love this list. So practical and so useful. Thank you for sharing!
