I'm a bookseller. I make more now than I did at BN, but it's sill retail. Japan has been a 30-year dream!
I hope to get some Japanese versions of my favorite books 😁
Have a book cover that matches my hair?
Show me!
I really do like trolling around the bookstore finding covers that match my hair.
It's blurry because my hands shake sometimes but The God and the Gumiho as some colors that match!
Red, magenta, pink, purple all work! 😁❤️💜💖
This amalgamation of red, purple, and pink comes from a leftover bottle of Splat Midnight Ruby slapped onto faded blue hair!
I love keeping partial bottles under the sink. It's like a lovely surprise!
All 3 photos show my new pink/magenta/red/purple hair in sunlight and artificial light!
CW food!
Went to the local Asian grocery and got whole fish, whole shrimps, napa, mushrooms, noodles, shrimp paste.
My 12yo cooked it! I was there to supervise.
I promise there are noodles and mushrooms under the napa, fish, and shrimps. 😅
My seldom-received PR box!
Full Speed to a Crash Landing by @bethrevis.bsky.social !!

I don't wanna unwrap the book yet. The wrapping is SO PRETTY.
Pumpkin the orange cat with curly hands.
Show me your cats with curly hands!
And dogs with curly hands!
I love other people's dogs! I don't have the energy to care for a dog so I do not have one!
My first book by @aptshadow.bsky.social and it's SERVICE MODEL.
Holy shit, y'all.
It's disturbing, heebie-jeebies, uncanny valley BIZARRE. It's making my brain go wobble wobble buzz buzz and I love it!
I just got to the cavalry and omfg I stayed up too late reading it and got like 5 hours of sleep

I'm hoping to shovel thru some sci-fi as I'll be turning 42! 😁
It's raining.
I cleared out 10k emails from my email.
I rewarded myself by untangling these earbuds.
Kiddo gave them to me because they know I love doing this.
Seasonal box from @harpercollins ! No Voyager this time.
The Silence Factory, by Bridget Collins

The Stone Witch of Florence, by Anna Rasche
I have a lucky friend because I already have Stone Witch (from Winter Institute, a bookseller conference)!
I work incredibly hard. Not just the backend stuff like receiving and shelving. But the selling.
Not even bn acknowledged my 100 sales of 3 titles because my store mgr never sent them in.
TorDotCom sent me an illustration! So I do have that. It's me on a throne of Gideon!

We've had our Trans Display up for an entire year now!!
It's not just a week-long thing.
It's forever.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility!
Gonna do this piecemeal.
First is the box a bunch came in. They're in amazing condition! The yellow edges are incredibly bright.
First is Master of Middle Earth. Look at that COVER.
The quill. The hair. The background! The soft lighting and cozy feels makes me wanna crawl into the illustration. 🕯️
I have a librarian friend and someone brought these Lord of the Rings books in to donate and he got them for me AS A GIFT.
I don't have those movie covers and I am BEYOND EXCITED to see what the covers of the boxed sets are!!
