As if a CNY Book Crawl wasn't cool enough, we are upping the ante. Because on July 15 at 6:30 p.m. at Crazy Daisies, Lit Actually Romance Bookshop welcomes ... ASHLEY POSTON!!! The woman who gave us the ghost who wouldn’t leave … the apartment that bent time … and the kind of love stories that stay a little too long. We’re celebrating her upcoming release, The Someday Garden (June 15)! Also, @su_vpa alum @pattimurin will be moderating the chat with Ashley. Tickets include a copy of the new book, and we'll have books for sale onsite so if you want to pick up additional titles. Full details are available on the Event Brite page. Tickets are live now! Link in bio and stories! @heyashposton @crazydaisiesflowers

Getting lit with Lit Actually! We teamed up with @lit.actually to throw a banger! Rules for the Summer by @meghanquinnbooks had us feeling loose or maybe that was the @curamiatequila !!! We partied at our studio the only way we know how, OVER THE TOP! We’re talking cooking demos, tequila tasting, signature cocktails, & endless chocolates! We even made our guests the stars by having them read spicy passages of the book from the teleprompter! Huge shout out to @madelsavio & @sweetonchocolate ! DM us if you want to take your party to the next level!

I know we say this often, so sue me. Last night was another banger for the books. The Spatchcock Funk guys hosted an incredibly wild VIP book club! The energy was loud, the crowd was obsessed, and somehow Meghan Quinn readers managed to get even more unhinged in public. Beautiful work all around. Standing O! Ovation and orgasm. Big work! There’s something ridiculously fun about watching a romance community come alive in real time - you guys bring the heat and make this place shimmer! Huge thank you to everyone who came out and made the night feel electric. Shout out to @sweetonchocolate & @curamiatequila for leveling up our event! And to @spatchcockfunk : my guys, my favorite parties are always the ones spent alongside you! I may never emotionally recover from this one. #launchparty #meghanquinn #romancebooks #romancereaders #hotgirlsread

@lit.actually and @spatchcockfunk know how to throw a PARTY! 🌈 i usually am too anxious to go to events alone but i am really glad i pushed myself today and went - it was a great evening full of familiar and new faces, amazing food, and awesome energy! the Spatchcock Funk crew are so hilarious and i love their mission of centering the womxn around them. there were also appearances from @sweetonchocolate @madelsavio @curamiatequila and some event regulars like @cdubsreads 💜 i am just awestruck by how this bookish community continues to show up and support local - now more than ever we have to band together to create community and spread joy! ⭐️ @meghanquinnbooks i can't wait to buddy read Rules For the Summer with @savannahsstudy 🥰 also, i won 3 giveaways and got savannah some cool freebies; we also both donated queer books for @cnylittlefreelibraries since we both believe strongly in spreading access to literature and giving back.

Kicking off our Local Author Series today with swoon-worthy fav Danielle Dexter! Her next book comes out NEXT WEEK! Vow or Never is a witty, emotionally rich romcom about a bride-to-be who reconnects with her hot one-night stand while planning her wedding to another man. HOT! Writer of heartfelt, messy, occasionally glitter-covered romances where people swear off love and then get caught by it anyway. We have several of @authordanielledexter books on our shelves and we are always restocking! We'll also have Vow or Never and will be celebrating with a special launch signing at our pop-up on May 22. Give Danielle some love and a follow!
