If You Can’t Say Something Nice, Get Off This Hashtag

We could all use a little of this: excellent selections from the #NiceUPaBook hashtag.

Raych has so many kids (like, two, but they’re super young, which makes it seem like there are more of them) and this really cuts into her reading time. She’s using her degrees in Early Childhood Education and English Literature to teach the toddler to read to the baby so she can get back to her trashy Victorian sensation novel, or whatever. She’s also teaching her kids to travel and eat broadly, mostly through example (Do As I Do is super important, you guys), and hasn’t gone a year without hopping on a plane since she was a teenager. She recently moved from the Canadian coast to the Canadian prairies, where it gets hella cold, and if not for the internet, she’d surely be dead. Blog: Books I Done Read Twitter: @raychraych

Everything is garbage, this is why we can’t have nice things, YOU know what I’m talking about *gestures wildly at literally any headline.*

Ok maybe we can have one nice thing. Jenny@ReadingtheEnd, one of the demographically similar Jennys of the incomparable Reading The End podcast, asked twitter to #NiceUpaBook as a way of lifting our flagging spirits.

Hilarity and warm hugs ensued.
