I discovered today that NetGalley have a book blog, with challenges, book bingo's, a forum, competitions, etc. I didn't even realise, but now that I know, I thought that I would share the most recent bingo board for June. I am going to have a go too, and try to do at least one line before the end of the month. So if anyone would like to participate too, the link to BookishFirst is below.

Shibbyfruitfly Some of my favorite bookish things to give are book sleeves (BookBeau is my favorite) and Gimble Travelers (a book holder that folds up and fits neatly inside a booksleave). I also love fun bookmarks and bookish themed coffee cups. 6y

Hey, fellow Wisconsin Littens! @Kshakal and I are looking for some bookishly fun things to do in Madison this weekend. Any suggestions?

MayginReads I feel like I should be able to help, but besides book shopping and library browsing, I can't think of anything. Frugal Muse bookstore is a great used book option. @JenReadsAlot any thoughts? 7y

Little_Reader @MayginReads That‘s the kind of stuff we‘re looking for. Good used bookstore recommendations are welcome! 7y

JenReadsAlot I can't think of anything else right now but will let you know! 7y

See All 9 Comments

MayginReads I have problems with self-control in Frugal Muse. I think it's worth a browse. The Sun Prairie library has a used bookstore in it and all the books are $1 or less, with a few exceptions for new-ish books. It's called Read Before Book Store. They are only rarely open from 6-8 pm, but here's their info http://www.sunprairiepubliclibrary.org/read-book-store I also LOVE that library. It has a reading room with a fireplace. 7y

MayginReads Oh, also, I haven't been in A Room of One's Own in a long time, but when I used to visit them, I was impressed with their niche selection. While their selection includes classic and current fiction and non-fiction, they "have strong children's and young adult, women's studies and LGBT fiction and nonfiction sections" as well as a solid local authors section. They also sell used books. https://www.roomofonesown.com 7y

gossamerchild The Central library is always worth checking out (HA!, sorry). There's also a Wisconsin Litsy meetup happening on the 10th, if you're interested. I'd second Room of One's Own. Beautiful bookstore. There's a great mystery bookstore in the West side, too : https://www.mysterytomebooks.com 7y

gossamerchild Side note, I stared at this picture for a good 10 seconds thinking, Man, that Capitol building looks awfully familiar 🤣🤣. 7y

gossamerchild HA. You know about the meetup. Sorry 🙄 7y

Little_Reader @MayginReads @gossamerchild Thanks for the recommendations! Hope to see you both on Saturday! 🤓 7y
