What a day! We rode to a bunch of the bookstores in the San Diego Book Crawl today. We aimed for 11, but holy moly! There were SO many events and people in SD today that it was all a bit much. 30 miles and 8 stores will be enough. #SDBookCrawl
#SDBookCrawl has been so much fun 15/10 would do it again. And if you’re in SD, check out these stores, they’re all so great!

4 down, 10 to go! #sdbookcrawl #heybooks
Happy #independentbookstoreday! Hitting the 14 shops that are a part of the #sdbookcrawl with three besties. This is going to be my favorite day ever.
Also, if you can help it, don’t fall for Amazon’s book sale happening today. Fuck then. Shop independent.
