Hi ✨
I just returned from a beautiful few days visiting my daughter Storey and her girlfriend Lizzy, traveling alongside my dear friend Sarah. Between the four of us, you’d expect a mountain of finished books—but do you want to know a secret? I didn’t read a single page. I was too busy losing count of the laughs. It was a gentle reminder that while stories are my life's work, the best "chapters" are often lived in person with the people we love.
Now that June is truly here, the days feel longer and the light a bit softer. It's a lovely time to check in on your yearly goals. Whether you're racing through your reading list or, like me, finding joy in simply being present.

I'd love to see your face and hear what you're reading! We are packing up our books for these upcoming stops:
Princeton Shopping Center
Saturday June 20 | 12 pm - 5 pm
Hopewell Farmers Market (Our Grand Debut!)

If you are too far to visit the tent, or just prefer to stay home in the air conditioning, you can still help us lay the bricks for our future permanent home in Central Jersey. Wander the Endless Bookshelf online or visit our Audiobook sanctuary on Libro.fm. When you start a new one credit per month membership supporting our bookshop with promo code SWITCH, we'll give you two bonus audiobook credits at sign-up.
With gratitude and enough joy to go around!
XOXO,
Kimberly
