Most days I feel as if Twitter is an energy suck, a happiness vampire, and a seething a pit of negativity. If you've spent any amount of time there you will know what I mean. It is easy to fall into a pit of despair if you spend too much time scrolling but as much as Twitter wounds my heart it is also a wonderful place where creatives, readers and introverts of all kinds can connect. Our not-so-little book community comprised of readers & writers LOVES books and these people know their stuff so you can feel safe with their recommendations. I am going to start a new series to celebrate the amazing people that make up the community and I will share their most recent five star reads on these posts. I think it's safe to say that there is likely something for everybody here.
