That's hilarious. Always the way it turns out.

Right? Same here. I don't stress out easily. But I've felt off all year so far. Maybe I just need a few hot summer months to cheer me up. I'd even settle for Spring blooming sometime soon.

I started my pick. Lucked out the audio was free with my membership. It's really sad and a bit scary at the beginning.

I feel like the weather. Here, there, and everywhere. I can't seem to get a firm footing on 2025.

Anyone else feeling discombobulated this year?

Our school closings are due to state politics as opposed to Federal politics. Several Texas school districts are each closing multiple schools because education funds are being held back by the state while politicians hash out their disagreements.

On the federal level, my heart is breaking over losing the head start program.

While other countries are making progress towards a more humane world, the US seems to be hurtling backwards in time

Congratulations to Kendall! So exciting.

Can’t go wrong with Lisa Kleypas."

That's what I was thinking!

1st time really? That's wild. Thanks for the pick. I'll let you know how it goes.

I'm waiting (forever) on The God of the Woods too.

Yes, yes, Jill. That's a good one.

Do you get the "it'll put me to sleep" answer?

Thanks for posting such an awesome lineup! These days I have to pick and choose a few instead of trying to do all the BRs. But with this selection I'm scrambling to narrow it down so I'm not behind at the end of April.

My library hold is estimated at 13 weeks, so if I have time to get to it this month I'll buy the Audible version. It's <$10.

It's an absolute nightmare. My daughter is an elementary school teacher at a STEM academy which is being SHUT DOWN at the end of the school year. My grandson is 4 and at this point, they may just keep him in daycare next year instead of trying to find a public school Pre-K program. We're all eyeing private school at this point. So sad because private schools have not been historically better than the public school system in the US.

I ditto EVERYTHING you said. Outside of my family, I keep my opinions to myself. Honestly, I'm a bit frightened. I almost didn't vote because I didn't want to become a target --- IF.

Maybe I'm more skittish than most because my father's family escaped Sicily during WWII and my mom lived through Peron's rule and overthrow in Argentina. I grew up hearing stories from them.

Funny because I said last November I needed to sleep through the next 4 years. I'm also on a news strike.

Stacy, I'm going to pick because it has such a unique cover color. Always catches my eye.

Hey guys, I posted pairs just a little early because I'm not sure I'll have time tomorrow. If anyone signs up after the pairs are posted, just let me know and we'll make sure you get to play in April.
