My coworker Bonnie met Mary HK Choi at #WI13 this year & asked her to sign a copy of EMERGENCY CONTACT for me! Choi‘s one of my favorite writers. I‘ve followed her journalism for years. I‘m so excited she‘s written a novel, and YA at that. It‘s wonderful so far—I‘m about 100 pages in. #amreading #currentlyreading #ARC #galleybrag

Children of Blood and Bone | Tomi Adeyemi

Holy. Dang. THIS BOOK. Not only did I literally shout “NO!” when the pilot announced our arrival in Memphis because I had only 40 pages left (RUDE, PILOT. RUDE.), but then I got to meet @tadeyemibooks the next day and tell her how freakishly amazing this book is. It comes out in March and if you don‘t buy it, you‘re a fool. A FOOL. #book #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #childrenofbloodandbone #wi13 #yalit #yafantasy #fantasybooks #amreading

Rebel Bookseller: How To Improvise Your Own Indie STore And Beat Back The Chains | Andrew Laties

Any other #booksellers heading to Memphis for #wi13?
Please forgive my very messy bedroom! I'm both busy and full of shame.

Tamra No shame allowed. 7y

Reecaspieces Ok what is wi13. I do not live far from Memphis so what am I missing. And safe travels. 7y

everlocalwest @Reecaspieces #wi13 is the tag for Winter Institute which is basically a few days of bookseller school. It's amazing! There are panels and roundtables for booksellers to share ideas. There are authors and publishers promoting new books. It's a wonderland. 7y

BookNAround Drats! I‘ve gone the past two years but not going this year (although I went as an exhibitor rather than a bookseller). 7y
