Welcome to Litsy!

Excited to have finally made it here - what an amazing place. I felt I was quite measured. 😁

I only visited one store for Independent Bookstore Day (I always forget it is a week-long crawl in Brooklyn with more than two dozen stores participating).

But I did remember to stop by my favorite bookstore. I picked up Held, which had been on my wishlist thanks to the Litsy love it got during #12Booksof2024, Red Pill from the bargain shelf, and a beautiful copy of A Room of Ones Own.

@BennettBookworm What a fabulous idea for your #20kgiveaway -- I can't wait to see the list of independent bookstore you compile!

I am fortunate to live in an area of Brooklyn with almost a dozen independent bookstores with “walking distance“. While I love McNally Jackson for their usefulness in various geographic reading challenges, the tagged bookstore (The Center for Fiction in Brooklyn, NY) is my favorite for browsing and discovery.

I so love awards season.

Hanging out with my current read at The Center for Fiction in Brooklyn until the yarn shops nearby open for business. #knittinglittens #bookshopreading #vacationreading
