💙📚 Roses are red Violets are blue I slept terribly last night for some reason and just remembered that Valentine’s Day is like, two days from now, so I dug around in the boxes of things we found in books this morning in search of anything vaguely related to V Day and… Here it is for you?

💙📚Continuing Black History Month today we’re featuring Until Justice Be Done, by Kate Masur, a groundbreaking history of the movement for equal rights that courageously battled racist laws and institutions, north and south, in the decades before the Civil War.

Thrift book haul today! We have the best local used bookstore @dicksonstreetbooks.bsky.social 💙📚🖋️📚🩸📚⚡️📚🌶️📚 #BOTM #BookSky

Part of the fun of working in a used bookshop is all the fascinating and unique things we find in our books every day. We share these periodically to spread the joy. Here's a selection of things found in books this week. 💙📚
