Clearly I am taking one! It turns out I am too busy

1. selling books

2. setting up author visits

3. selling books at a children’s theatre

4. buying backlist books on special

5. reading books

6. buying spring (!!!) books for the shop

7. planning three store parties

and oh yeah

8. spending time with my family, including my husband who is going to China for two weeks and my daughter who is about to turn three and is torn between being delightful and being a hellbeast to

9. review books.

So unfortunately, I think 9 has to wait just a weeeeeee bit longer.

(However: thumbs up on LEVIATHAN; books I love like THE COMPOUND and THE ADORATION OF JENNA FOX being out in paper; and HOW TO SAY GOODBYE IN ROBOT being out, period.)
