Dear Reader β¨
I've been sitting on this one for a little while, and I'm so excited to finally share it with you.
The Main Street Chapters blog is officially live! π
This isn't a corporate content calendar or a list of "Top 10 Books for Summer." This is a front-porch conversation. The kind of thing we'd talk about if you stopped by our table at the Hopewell Farmers Market.
The blog is where I'll share the stories behind the bundles, the books I can't stop thinking about, and the events that make me feel like this whole thing is really, truly working. A little behind-the-scenes, a little bookish, and a whole lot of Main Street.
Heather by Caitlin Mullen
What a book. This slow-burn mystery is carried by a cast of strong, deeply human women. It's the kind of book that lingers. Mullen writes about what it means to stand alongside one another, and how that act of showing up β for each other, for the ones we've lost β is its own kind of survival. I've been pressing this one into people's hands and I don't plan to stop anytime soon.
