The view from down here 🌴✨
Been working hard at working less.
2022 started crazy and hasn’t ceased, so a ‘mini road trip’ was in order.

We’re in just a fortnight, Feb. 6th with all those great vintage dealers, so a pre-game trip out to Yucca Valley was in order. Visiting cool shops, the great coffee, clean air, reading by a pool, all good before the next season of working hard.
Having ‘No Plan’ was a good plan.
What are you doing to unwind and keep sane in this season of the unpredictable?

It’s always worth it.♥️
All the times you stand up for what’s right, each time you do something scary, every time you help someone in need, every time you pick up a book to try and learn something new, all the things, it’s always worth it. ♥️
“The time is always right to do what is right.” - Martin Luther King Jr. who we respect the words and deeds of on this day, and every day.
*We are actively trying to list a whole bunch of new books on the website that have arrived just in time for Reading Season, which is all the time, if you play your cards right 🃏♥️ Link in bio 🔝

Happy Birthday David Bowie, on what would have been his 75th ✨ *does anyone else remember his iconic READ posters from the 80’s? I sure do, they were up in our schools and I remember thinking, ‘Wow!’ 🌟📘🇬🇧

Mr. Bowie was a lifelong bibliophile, apparently, and advocated reading for young people, something dear to my ♥️ as well, and I for one will do anything David Bowie told me to do….

Winter doing her thing … the indoorsey nature of the season speaks to reading more, but don’t all seasons, me thinks. 🤔 Swipe ➡️ to see what we’re reading these cold days. They’ll be on the website soon, expect for the Didion, she stays with me. 😌

Always my favorite photo of her, for me; so smart, hip, cool, with her finger on the pulse of culture, and history. ✍️ Hard to explain all that Joan Didion has given us through her writing and the extraordinary way she lived her very full life. Thank you Ms. Didion! ⭐️
*We lost too many amazing female writers this month; the great Bell Hooks, and our dear Eve Babitz. It’s certainly time to recognize the contributions female writers have made in the same way we do for male writers. This one hurts!
Rest In Peace our dear ‘Lady of California.’
