One of #booktubelife's pleasures is a good #BuddyRead, and today @AlansReads and I meet to discuss The Songs of Trees by David George Haskell, a nature memoir and #Climathon read for the spring. 🏝️
🙋🏻♀️I'm Margaret, a historical fiction/fantasy writer, using this Booktube channel to connect with readers, writers, and other lovers of words (and tea!). There will be cat cameos, books you've never heard of, and positive community vibes. Welcome. 🌈
