I was on the fence about this book after finishing it but enjoyed the science. It was for my book club, and everyone else loved it so I finished the series. Book 2 was less of a hit with everyone and we all hated book 3 😂 The series gets more misogynistic as it goes on.

Gov. Mike DeWine, speaking at the 2025 Library Legislative Day:

“Ohio has historically put a real premium on our libraries and I think that something that we want to continue.”

The House budget version eliminates the Ohio Public Library Fund, creating a formula advocates say will slash $100M.

Yes! Ohio folks have until 4/9 to speak up for libraries. Please call, email, and tell your people to do the same. The Ohio house is planning to destroy library funding.

Ohioans, have you called Speaker Matt Huffman today? His number is (614) 466-6344! Tell him:
-don’t cut Ohio’s library funding! Restore the Public Library Fund to 1.75% of the General Revenue Fund!
-fully and fairly fund our schools! 90% of Ohio’s students attend public schools!
-to go fuck himself!

The Ohio House Republicans have released their first budget and their numbers are bad but the reasons they are using to push their terrible decisions are worse. We explain and put it all in context in this week's ICYMI Statehouse Edition.

Ohio peeps, get on the horn to your state reps, they're trying to cut the budget for our public libraries. Tell them to restore the Public Library Fund (PLF) to 1.75% of the Ohio General Revenue Fund!

Unfortunately, I think you're right.

Yes! It seems daunting, but all of my calls end up being under a minute.

We are lucky to have one of the best library systems in the country. Call your representatives, Speaker Huffman, & Chairman Stewart and demand they not cut library funding!

CHPL isn’t just a library. It’s our family's lifeline.

📚 Visited every branch since COVID
🎉 Held a birthday party at one
🎶 Borrow music for my work commute

CHPL = 2nd busiest in the nation.
Don’t cut what makes Ohio strong.

Calling can seem daunting, but it literally only takes a minute. My call to the Chairman was 32 seconds today, and I'll be calling tomorrow. Speaker Huffman keeps going right to voicemail.

The current version of the state budget is anti-health, anti-education, and anti-children. It will cut funds to everything from libraries, to schools, and even to food banks. House Republicans claim this is because we don’t have “enough money”.

This isn't getting the news coverage it should! #Ohio has some of the best library systems in the country. Libraries are not a luxury. They're a necessity.

#Ohio folks, please call your state representative and tell them to restore the Public Library Fund. Without it, rural libraries are pretty much screwed, and urban libraries are pretty screwed, too.

Then call the Speaker, Matt Huffman at (614) 466-6344 and ask him to do the same thing.

Ohio's Republican Budget Proposal Destroys Library Funding, Restricts LGBTQ+ Books, Targets Library Trustee Terms Ohio House Republicans would require libraries remove LGBTQ+ books from sight of those under 18 while also slashing $100 in public library funding.

Ohio communities need strong public libraries, but the Ohio House wants to cut library funding and censor what's available for library users.
Great article from @bookriot.bsky.social on libraries and the House budget proposal.
