Sad #bookstore news to note with the impending closure of Ada's Technical Books.
I don't get down there much these days; but, I always made it a point to poke my head in to Ada's when I was around 15th Ave/Volunteer Park.
I hardly recognize the neighboorhood any longer(R.I.P. Coastal Kitchen!). -
At the local bookshop to pick up Sisters in Yellow, and having a coffee. Love this place (Backstory in Balham).

Book lovers, this is your treasure map. NYC has incredible hidden bookstores: Albertine (French books in a Fifth Ave mansion), Chartwell (world's only Winston Churchill bookstore), Dashwood (photography books in NoHo basement), plus gems tucked inside bodegas and library basements. Each one has character that big chains can't match.

The #SacredGround groups at my church have started a book club rather appropriately called #RBG which, in our case, stands for #ReconciliationBookGroup (as well as honoring the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg). In April we are #reading the #FalseWhiteGospel by #JimWallis which is a troubling chronicle of American #Christianity as well as a (wake up) call to action for many Midwestern #Episcopalians who still don’t understand the threat #ChristianNationalism poses to our faith, our communities, & our #Democracy If you are a person of faith or just someone who wants to understand what’s at stake & why the #theocracy model of the current regime is a bad idea for everyone, please read this book. https://bookshop.org/a/13969/9781250291899 (yes, this is an affiliate link, by using it you help support #IndependentBookStores & my reading habit. Thanks in advance!)
