Reminder that books make awesome gifts for all holiday events, and they taste sweeter when they’re from indie bookstores. Don’t know what to get? Indie bookstores have gift cards!

Moment of appreciation for my excellent human artist @almosthomefree.bsky.social who did this absolute killer for CLUB CONTANGO and it's such a shame you don't get all of it on the cover. Maybe we should issue an art poster for the book's first year? ✨🎲📉🔥
