If you purchase 5 books from one of the below stores, I will join a virtual book club event (of whatever size!). Vromans - Pasadena, CA ➡️ Support Vromans Left Bank Books - St Louis, MOSupport Left Bank Books 44th & 3rd Books - Atlanta, GA Support 44th & 3rd...

For that, I am beyond grateful. But here’s the bigger dream:I want to reach 5,000 preorders...
