We're getting fall vibes from the covers of #BeTruetoMe and the Naked Heat Palette! This is what our reviewer had to say about #BeTruetoMe by @adelegriffin "BE TRUE TO ME would appeal to anyone interested in the works of Jenny Han and Jennifer E. Smith or even someone who is interested in wild summer flings amidst the groovy decade that is the '70s."

Tomorrow night I get to host these three amazing authors at @FountainBookstore and I just finished Be True to Me. Loved it! Take two girls, one boy, a small island, shake it up and send it back to 1976 and you've got a riveting tale of the lengths we'll go to and all the ways we'll betray (ourselves as well as others) for live and ambition. All 3 books are fantastic and I'm so excited to meet the authors!

Spending some time on Fire Island in the 1970s. Adele Griffin is coming to @FountainBookstore next week and I get to moderate her, Sarah Mlynowski and Jodi Lynn Anderson. So this totally counts as work! #CurrentlyReading #Lovemyjob #indiebookstore #AuthorSigning

Super excited to read this book over the summer. I LOVE contemporaries, especially during the summer. They are the best feel good reads.

Literary, love triangle, historical fiction, coming of age. A beautiful and tragic story set in the 70s

I loved hanging out at Workman/Algonquin this morning! We carry a lot of their titles at @FountainBookstore and we saw some great things today. And then they gave us some truly swanky swag! #BookExpo #BEA17 #NYC

Love everything @AlgonquinYR publishes. This is a kind of coming-of-age, first love, friendship and more set on Fire Island in 1976.

Librarylady I got this in the mail this week. Wanting to get to it soon, but the TBR pile just keeps getting larger. 8y

Read this book SO FAST! It pulled me in right away and takes place in the summer of 1976. Jean's family always summers on Fire Island; Fritz always goes with her best friend and has always been sort of an outsider. Enter Gil, who is trying to fit in and has ties to a family on the island too. Both girls like him and the summer is sort of a fight over him with bigger consequences. A good discussion in privilege too. #youngadult #kidlit out in June.

Tuesdays are my most productive days, meaning I work so hard I look up and have been going for 6 or 7 straight hours. Taking a conscious break with the new Adele Griffin book and cup of tea.
