Thank you so much! This is very helpful!

SAME. Most of them are in New Jersey! I’m happy for them, but I don’t need to know about this until one opens here. 🤣

Thank you, that would be really nice!

I just bought this box of cereal for the same reason! The font, snoopy, the festiveness. It makes me so happy.

Ha, I’ve got Snowed In planned for this year! We’ll have to circle back and compare notes on which we liked better. I’m reading Christmas Cliche by Tara Sivec right now, which is super cute!

I’ve read your post three times now and can’t figure out what it means. 🤣 I guess I have some learning to do!!

It’s certainly been a very stressful week! I hope this event brings people some extra joy and happiness this holiday season. ❤️

Whoops! I meant Catherine Walsh!

You will LOVE this one! I also highly recommend Holiday Romance by Courtney Walsh. It’s one of my absolute favorites. Fluffy and perfect.

Well I guess I’m back to resurrect my feed. Lol.

Does anyone have any friends who are looking for Bluesky invite codes? I have a few and can’t find anyone who wants them. Lol. Let me know if I can help you get your people here!

Do people in the USA qualify? I’ll keep an eye out next Wednesday if all offers have been taken. This is a lovely idea. :)

I’m in the USA, so I don’t know if I qualify for this. But I would love a book if you’re still offering. ❤️

I would love a new book! I’m quite sick, and it would lift my spirits!

The only kind of help I can send is the kind that will further weaken your resolve. 🤣

I’m sold. Art heists are my favorite and I never find books that are also romantic! Adding to my wish list immediately!

The Keeper of Hidden Books by Madeline Martin | Book Review – That Artsy Reader Girl The Keeper of Hidden Books is a beautiful, beautiful story. I love Madeline Martin’s WW2 novels because she does such a good job of presenting difficult subject matter in a very tender and reverent ...

I don’t read a ton of historical fiction, but when I do I really enjoy it!

Oh wow, I totally forgot about Hive. I have that, too. I am seeing a lot of bookish people on Threads. I wonder when this place will stop being invite-only. That’ll help.

It feels like an echo chamber right now, but I’m happy to be here. I hope I can find even more of my friends from the other place soon!

Ohhhh what a good idea. I love it too!

I love this so much!!

I love it! Beautiful work. :)

It’s so nice of your tummy to try and let you know! And that’s a good point about coffee. I don’t drink it either, so luckily I don’t have to be sad about not being able to stomach it!

I’m the same way!! And I never know if this time I’ll be ok until after I’ve had some. Lol. For me it’s stomach pain and nausea. So hot drink roulette it is!

I am too!

I’ve just scheduled this year’s Broke & Bookish Secret Santa (TBTBSanta) info! Sign-ups go live on my blog on 10/23. For former Twitter users who want a place to chat with participants, there will be an optional private FB group this year that you can join! Should be lots of fun!

Yeah, that step back is amazing.
