We apologize for any inconvenience but we are cancelling our pop up in wamego tonight. I tried to compare multiple sites but the rain has been jumping around all day with start times! I appreciate the support from Oz Winery. I hope to get to Wamego soon!

We were so busy this week and we are so thankful for it! Another shout out to Manhattan Brewing Company for hosting our midnight release party. The fandom came with costumes, and we had a great time debating the leading theories of the new book!

I am feeling very honored to be featured in 🇺🇸MILSPO Social Co. Magazine this quarter. When I first discovered this platform I was drawn to effortless way it helps military spouses connect and network on such a big scale. Since starting the book store I have really enjoyed meeting other business owners and figuring out how our businesses or networks can support one another. Jillian Jacobs and Jessica Lunt were some of the first to come out and sell their books with me- and I will forever be grateful for them putting up with my crazy. I have flat out failed in my attempts with some connections. It may sound cliche but I try to go forward and do better the next time… all while trying to bring something unique to the community. Please check out 🇺🇸MILSPO Social Co. Magazine if you get a chance! Thank you to everyone who has given us a chance or supported our store. 😊
