Sharing one of my favorite places in #Charlotte: Park Road Books, the same indie bookstore I visited as a child (though it was called the Little Professor back then). 📚 It was the first place where I applied for a job as a teen many years ago (didn’t get it since they weren’t hiring). It was also first place to host my first book launch, fewer years ago. 📚 Bookseller Sherri is kind enough to handle selling and sending signed copies of the Ever Afters when someone wants them, even when that someone requests the books shipped internationally. She called me this afternoon to sign and personalize a set of hardcovers—maybe as a Christmas present?!—and it still makes me so happy to sign books with my name on them in a bookstore that has so much history, both with me and with the city where I grew up. 📚 Thank you, @parkroadbooksclt, for continuing to be awesome for as long as I can remember. 📚 Oh, and of course I picked up a book while I was there—best way to start my weekend off right. 👌 #LoveYourBookstore #CLT #charlottenc #queencity #indiebookstore (at Park Road Books) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqQyhFoHR-t/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=a3autdf6wkmf

Guys, did you know that today kicks off the #loveyourbookstore challenge? It's like someone made a hashtag JUST FOR ME! You maaaaayyyyy have noticed that I have a small infatuation with the best-est little bookshop around, but seriously... can you blame me? They are awesome enough to let me come hang there one day a weekend too, and I tuck away more things to love about this little shop each time I'm there. They give back to their community even more than anyone realizes (because that's not why they do it), and they help spread joy, and hope, and happiness, and love like confetti. It's spread in the form of books, and lattes, and bendy sloths. It's spread in the smiles and warmth that greet regulars and newbies alike. Don't believe me? Kids are the biggest truth-tellers I know, and gasp with delight when they reach the top of the stairs. One child in particular summed it up perfectly. He gasped and smiled as wide as possible, "WOW!!! Look at their family room!!!" Yep. Because THAT is what your local little bookshop is: a family room. So love up your bookstores today and every day! #littlejoes #bookshop #bookstore #indiebookshop #supportlocal #shoplocal #indiebookstore #favoriteplace #kathleenkelly #bookseller #westchester #northernwestchester #katonah #katonahlife (at Little Joe's Books) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqAVLRPlddE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qsuhzv8z8c5f
