  • I love @vromansbookstore but I live in #orangecountyca. So when I heard @harukimurakamiofficial had a new book coming out and @aaknopf was giving away free totes to preorders, I ordered. They sent me the book, it arrived today and it is absolutely perfect. #vromans made this possible. #myfavoritebookstore

  • I didn’t start the evening saying ‘I want to play a game more complicated than Cones of Dunshire,’ but here we are. #Gloomhaven #ConesofDunshire #boardgames #geeky #whatdidIjustdo
  • When you realize you haven’t watched a show yet, but need to #bookcross a book anyway, you suck it up. So far, @torbooks is bringing it! #theLibrarians #bookseries is cool! I like the way it brings in the Noah Wylie character and the Librarians from the show! #thriller #novelization #tvbooks #tvtiein #tntseries
  • Reading a book to #bookcross. @ladyhawkins seems to write a laugh-out-loud story with nods to the media’s obsession with #celebrity and #royalty. Favorite quote? ‘There is zero eroticism happening here in the parking lot.’ #ya #yalit #fridayread #noprincecharming #DaisyWinters #Scotland
  • Finished this last night, thanks to the @lapubliclibrary! It was compelling and definitely a thriller, but the mother and daughter were very unsympathetic characters. I think this is definitely a book that will stay with readers for a while. I cannot wait to read more from @zoje.stage_author! Loved the #GiantEagle reference! #ebook #babyteeth #interestingplot #compellingstory #goodspookyread
