Happy Bookstore Romance Day! For those unfamiliar, BRD is a day designed to give independent bookstores an opportunity to celebrate Romance fiction—its books, readers, and writers—and to strengthen the relationships between bookstores and the romance community.
Check out the events calendar for the day’s fun and free virtual programming. I’m eyeing the Love is Queer panel, with authors Adib Khorram, Timothy Janovsky, Frederick Smith, Jonny Garza Villa, and Tom Vellner. You can also check out the closest participating bookstores to you by searching this map.
