When people ask why preodering from Indie shops matters... one, you get a chance at a signed copy (occasionally) and two, your favorite Indie Bookstore may already be sold out 😲😍?!? Of course, there are other reasons too...but Happy Release Day Grady Hendrix! #newbooks
A stack of hardcover books titled Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix is displayed on a wooden table in a bookstore. The book features a black cover with gold lettering, a central illustration of hand floating a lava lamp surrounded by teal lava, and a "Signed Copy" sticker. Bookshelves filled with various colorful books are visible in the background, creating a cozy atmosphere.

Hari Conner's graphic novel I Shall Never Fall in Love is out today! I have been so excited about this release. It will be featured in my #NewBooksTuesdays post today 😍 #graphicnovels

A hand holding a boo in front of bookshelves. Book featured is a graphic novel I Shall Never Fall in Love by Hari Conner. Three main characters, two young women and a trans man, in regency style clothing, sitting with their backs to each other on grass. One woman holds a cup of tea looking into the distance, and the other woman and trans man lean in closer, staring into each other's eyes.

I could get used to my new title, for this season, of Fairy Book-mother. Check out the highlight reel and my silly accent for the shop's Pumpkins & Petals event last night. It was a magical success! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8LQQCm5/ #booksaremagical #indiebookstore

No more "little" stirs of the pot in my shop. Let's cause some havoc... I would love to refresh some minds in my town. Drop your suggestions for me, and I'll see if I can get them in stock! This one came from @apocalypsecowboy.bsky.social

Sharing from a friend on FB. The evil river, or as I like to say 😆 Lex Luther, doesn't need any more of your support! Indie Shops do!

Mentone is the "Egg Basket of the Midwest" and we have a giant egg in our town square. I tend to lean in to the egg theme during community events... can you tell? 😅

In case you are wondering what kind of shenanigans this bookseller gets into... I also double as a Fairy Book-mother as tonight's TikTok can attest 🤣
