Cats on the internet? How Novel.

Happy international cat day from booksellers' cats - who know that books are just the next best thing to the box they come in.

Uprooted by Naomi Novik "familiar as a Grimm fairy tale yet fresh, original, and totally irresistible"

Mortal Follies by Alexis Hall "Witches and gods, scandals and curses all combine in this spellbinding historical Sapphic romance"

Zodiac Academy by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti "Follow our twin princesses as they fight to reclaim their throne." *very spicy* *please note this series has dark content*

Bitter Medicine by Mia Tsai "The magic system had me mesmerized in how it blends cultures. Inspired by Chinese drama, the romance & action were addictive"

Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett "Besides a grumpy, young professor, this book has fairies, and adventure, romance, mystery... and did I say fairies?"

Immortal Longings by Chloe Gong "Gripping, bewildering, irresistible..."

8.8.23 Portland's own Powell's City Books

With over a million books to choose from, this bookstore is HUGE! Since John's happy place is often a bookstore, we had to check it out after his conference. We all found some great book choices. I feel confident in making a prediction- happy reading is in our future.

I hope to visit this store someday and it sucks that they treat their staff so shittily.

Hey there,

Not sure if you've heard, but the employees at Powell's City of Books in Portland are sharing a petition to get Powell's to pay them fairly.

Seems pretty pathetic that an establishment that is considered iconic, a destination for so many visitors, won't treat their employees as a valuable part of that reputation.

Anyway, I'm sure it'd do nothing but help their cause if could give them some support?

To make sure another book store doesn't go down in flames.

Absolutely. That's

And as they stress, Please note: this is not a call for a boycott; it’s a call for signatures! Please sign and share!
