📰Amazing Job! I love this! So so cool! Such an amazing task! It's beautiful! This is incredible!

After releasing a two year project--a 168 page Unofficial Guide to the Books on Gilmore Girls by episode, THIS is the positive feedback it received this week. My favorite: "DOING THE LORD'S WORK."

👀On My Radar: Lobro.fm’s Annual Membership

Libro.fm, one of my favorite audiobook apps, which supports independent bookstores, launched a new annual plan that gives members 12 credits upfront, 30% off additional purchases (including sale), and access to member-only sales.

Plus, for a limited time, annual members will receive a 13th credit free.

This plan provides stores with more predictable, upfront revenue. It’s also nice for you to have your credits accessible whenever you need them—not once per month!

I’ve used this audiobook service for years and support indies generally, though you can choose your local one if you’d like. It pops right up for you to choose them.

My favorite feature of Libro.fm as a user is that your credits don’t expire, unlike some other audiobook platforms.

This one was really, really big! Nearly two years in the making, my Unofficial Guide to the Books on Gilmore Girls BY EPISODE is here! At 168 pages, it’s bigger and better than any other you’ll find, with 100+ new discoveries.

And, as we read kid’s books from Gilmore Girls this month, I featured a Gilmore and book club favorite, which I actually found to be relevant to this moment in time, especially as much of the U.S.A. heads into a snowy weekend at home.
