So that explains the mysterious, soothing, addictive smell we love! I want to know more about this.
A book nerd friend is moving and gave me first dibbs on her books she‘s okay with giving away. Many more shelves to go through. I chose these yesterday.
So this is what this year has come to, a pessimistic fortune cookie 🥠 🤦🏼♀️🥠

The story of the two, Bate Motels.
My mom always told me about a Bates Motel series from 1987. It had supernatural elements and was all so good!
A few weeks ago my mom found this complete series of the Bates Motel. We were so excited to find this, and I was thrilled to finally be able to watch this supernatural series I grew up hearing about.

Purchased this issue because Dark Winds was featured on the cover, and discovered this article.
From Magazine,
Cowboys & Indians
The Spring Fashion Issue
April 2025, Page 110
Note: the following is not a direct qoute from article.
The Packhorse Librarians (during the great depression between 1936-43) filled their saddlebags with books and rode into the hills of the Appalachia to bring books to those who had none.

I haven't been able to catch the Killers of the Flower Moon (2023) movie, therefore it wasn't one of my seven. Yet Did read the book, and that was a terrifying masterpiece.

Very behind on my #ReadingBracket2025
As much as I love Assassin's Apprentice, I went with SVSSS as my favourite because of how much joy it brought me
No wild cards yet. I think I'm going to leave them until Jun/Dec and pick a book that has stuck with me, made an impact etc but maybe wasn't my favourite that month

Went out and got myself a pager 📟! Anyone can now reach me by dialing 📞 Pennsylvania 6-5000 😉💝.

Heartbound Book Shop in Anaheim, California, is my new favorite indie bookstore!
It's a romance bookstore and it has an awesome selection of books! They also have constant events, which are so fun to participate in.
#SundayFunday @BookmarkTavern
My favorite bookstore is Joseph-Beth in Lexington. Another indie bookstore I love is Sassafras in Black Mountain, NC. There‘s several indies around my state, & I‘m planning to road trip to some this summer. #sundayfunday @BookmarkTavern
