It's time again as a notable Italian-American to note Christopher Columbus was an absolute piece of shit human who didn't land anywhere near this actual country so why the fuck should he stop the mail for the whole day

Anyway, Happy Indigenous People's Day, y'all

Head to tinyurl.com/aaronsbookssurvey to tell us what you think (and also say lots of nice things, of course) 🥰

Speaking from recent experience, I highly recommend not reading I Who Have Never Known Men and The Memory Police back to back… 📚💙

In our opinion, a visit to the bookstore actually *is* the answer to your problems 📚💙

If I'm reading an 800 page book, I really think I should be freed of all other responsibilities 📚💙

You know you’ve been at a bookseller conference when you develop a shoulder bruise perfectly matching the strap of a tote bag full of books 📚💙

After years of emailing back and forth, I finally got to meet @mcflycahill90.bsky.social in person! I can’t wait to read Audition for the Fox - congratulations on your debut 🎉

I’m part of a panel next week on Social Media for Bookstores (contrary to what my personal accounts look like, I’m a pretty good Social Media Manager 😅).

If you were a bookseller attending, what would you want to hear about?

Check out our vice president Jaxon telling it like it is and showing off his nature badges from his many years at Camp Conrad Weiser. 💛

"I asked chatgpt"
"I asked grok"
"I've looked into the eye of this island, and what I saw was beautiful."

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.

Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

“I asked chatgpt” “I asked grok”
Well I asked my indie bookstore for a recommendation and they found me the perfect book 💙📚

This is such a great throwback! Time for a rewatch?!

Friendly reminder that Indie Bookstore Day is this Saturday, and that it’s definitely not a coincidence that you-know-who is having a giant book sale at the same time 👀

Did 9-1-1 Make a Major Mistake This Week? In which I spend nearly 1000 words ranting about a glorified soap opera.

I spent my morning writing almost 1,000 words about the show 9-1-1 because...why not?

Driving home at 1am I passed so many cops who thought I was coming home from a cool St Patrick’s Day party when really I was coming home from the even cooler Sunrise on the Reaping midnight release party I hosted for @aaronsbooks.bsky.social

“Women”
Is this our way of advocating for women’s reproductive rights? Or a subtle show of support for banning trans women from women’s restrooms? We’ll never tell.

Is there a way you can add Senators' different office numbers to the app? Mine are disconnecting calls from their DC lines, but I was able to get through to regional offices after some research. Thanks for all that you're doing!
