This week I have been driving my husband completely mad showing him my newest books- trophies, as he calls them. These are obsessions in and of themselves. We have been seeing such beautiful things with special editions anymore! Every Tuesday my best friend and I have lunch, walk, and finish at the bookstore where we gush over books. Honestly, it’s one of the highlights of my week! It’s hard, though, not to bring any home… and so I have bought nine in the last two months. Her Soul To Take by Harley Laroux and The Wren in the Holly Library by K. A. Linde are the two that I have read so far. I am slowly going through a reread of Wicked by Gregory Maguire. I’ll get to them eventually…
As far as merch, there are a few books (like The Wren in the Holly Library) that make me want merchandise. I can absolutely see Litograph styles shirts or bags. Linde does have some merch on her site. As it is, I have one of her bundles coming.
As far as Litograph goes, they make apparel and home items using the story to create pictures.
Some of the authors I have really enjoyed also have merch either on their site or a side company.
Hannah Nicole Maeher is another that I loved. She is working with people to make merch.

I love what we’re seeing for book merch now! Do you have a favorite?
Happy Reading! See you next time!
