September was so packed with events we decided to make a recap video - we hope to see you at one of our future events this month or beyond!

Our October newsletter is live! See what books are coming out this month, and read about our featured books on our Substack (linked in bio).

Counting Down to You by Emily Stone releases October 6. “This is a great cozy romance for kicking off the holiday season, with some exploration into loss, grief, imposter syndrome, and learning to say yes to what chance encounters come your way.”

Solar Eclipse of the Heart by Kate Robb releases October 6. “This is a book about starting to open up to the people in your life and community, and about finding the person to eat pad Thai and watch Schitt’s Creek with you.”

Scorpio Season by Maisie Bell releases October 20. “Florence is intent on keeping things professional and their hookup a secret, but finds it hard when they spend so much time together, and the hostels they’re staying in are always short one bed (to save costs, of course).”
