Do you all actually follow people on #bookwyrm ?
Who then? Friends? Critics?

I read mostly children and teenager #books. Who would you advice me to follow?

Aprovecho el primer día del año para escribir un hilo con todos los servicios que tenemos en #LecturaSocial, que empezamos hace 3 años solo con una instancia de Bookwyrm y ahora tenemos 10 servicios en total.

1) Lectura.Social: Nuestro #Bookwyrm, una alternativa a Goodreads.

2) Escritura.Social: Nuestro #Writefreely, un sistema de blogs minimalista y federado.

3) Literatube: Una instancia de #Peertube que sirve como alternativa a Youtube si publicas vídeos sobre libros y Literatura.

Bon, je craque et passe à la version en français moderne (de Guy de Pernon). Déjà que je lis (très lentement) ce premier livre des Essais entre deux autres lectures, le français du XVIe rend le propos très difficilement intelligible. Du coup, qu'on me pardonne, j'ai converti ça ( www.ebooksgratuits.com/html/montaigne_essais_traduction_1.html ) en epub.

So, it's either keep buying more books or become a librarian? 🤔
It's a rare thing indeed to have life present us with two excellent choices 😊

It's not that I *can't* read all of the books I already have, it's that once a reader finishes all the books in their possession, they transcend into their final form and I'm just not ready to become a librarian yet.

Seit November ist unser Buchladen ganz schön gewachsen. Deswegen müssen wir heute ein paar Schränke neu arrangieren. Gar nicht so einfach für uns Quereinsteiger. 😅 Seht ihr Bücher die Euch besonders gefallen haben, oder die ihr unbedingt noch lesen wollt. Gibt es Bücher die wir unbedingt noch dahaben sollten?
Liebe Grüße aus #chemnitz

Ein Bild von Bücherschränken in der Buchhandlung am Brühl, die gerade neu arrangiert werden. Einige prominente Titel sind: Olive Otele: Afrikanische Europäer, Timothy Snider: Über Tyrranei, Casta Diva: Der Schwule Opernführer, Davi Kopenawa/Bruce Albert: Der Sturz des Himmels, Frauka Greyken: Freya von Moltke, Eva Strittmatter/Erwin Strittmatter: Du bist mein zweites Ich.

As a society, we need to stop pretending that YA is a decent genre when it's the literary equivalent of a marvel movie.

I have to say I feel we're missing a few steps towards an explanation of how "for suppository use only" got in the mix of approprite warning lables 🤔😂

Post by Jennifer Goodland

At today's staff meeting we discussed the need for warning labels for our books.
Like “not microwave safe”
“not dishwasher safe”
“for suppository use only”

The discussion was prompted by another library where a patron got their book wet, tried to dry it out in the microwave, and the metallic RFID tag destroyed both the microwave and the book.

I've tried to migrate from a @bookwyrm account to a @neodb account. I can set up the BW account as an alias in the NeoDB instance, but when trying to initiate the move from BW, I get this message:

"Set this user as an alias on the user you are moving to first”

I'm trying to move from @daniel@books.theunseen.city to @daniel

Anyone with more knowledge have any idea what might be going wrong here?

C’est un ami (décédé il y a quelques années après une longue maladie) qui avait traduit le roman en français. Je souhaite le lire principalement pour cette raison sentimentale.
