SUMMARY:Beach Reads Pop-Up
DESCRIPTION:It’s time to get hot and heavy! Why Choose is ringing in summer with a broad selection of romances to sink into in the sand or by the pool. We’ll have a curated collection of new and used romance novels focused on those written by historically and systemically excluded and marginalized groups\, as well as other merch and fun stuff! May is also the time when we celebrate and advocate for several different disabled groups\, so we’ll be highlighting works by physically and mentally disabled and neurodiverse authors as well! Need recs? We’re excited to find you the perfect romance!
