Kick off PRIDE month with us on June 4th, 6:00, with LGBTQ+ author, Marshall Thornton and his new book "The Pink"! 🌈❤️📚
The Lambda award winnning author transports readers to early 20th century Chicago, an era of developing q***r sub culture, and the advent of the Pinkerton's Detective Agency. This, plus a growing temperance movement, makes for a very special murder mystery, and informs us about a historical time in q***r acknowledgment.
Wine reception following. 🍷🌈❤️📚

Did anyone read this book? I did and what a great summer beach read (although I read it in the dead of winter). It sure lifted my spirits and kept me very entertained as the snow and wind blew willy-nilly outside.
The movie is coming so get the book first and read all the extra drama and info they can't get into the movie! Shoot, take it to the beach! You've got until July 9, after all.
On shelves now in the Fiction section @ Bay Books. 📚😊

Every so often, I pull my copy of this book out to read again. It reminds me of the fun and blessings of being a book seller, of being a reader, and is just plain entertaining. It reminds me that "...the things we respond to at the age of 20 are not necessarily the same things we might respond to when we're older. This is true in life as well as with books." (A.J. Fikry)
