2/2 Because of this, they are unable to open for the foreseeable future. Please help me help my favorite bookstore (and bastion of my social life) make it through this! 🙏🏼 If you're able to donate to the GFM, or will share it, anything is appreciated. ❤️https://t.co/2qvwY5Foud

1/2 On Sunday, #PageTurnerBooks, my favorite #indiebookstore – home to my beloved #bookclub – flooded when pipes in the unit above them burst. 😭 It's an old building, and they had to wait for the Fire Dept to come to be able to turn the water off... the loss was immense.
