Hellooooo! Bookstore Romance Day is this Saturday, August 21st and there are so many independent bookstores participating this year. Here’s a list of all the stores involved and definitely check to see if a store near you is doing anything fun!
Last year, I hosted three virtual panels for Belmont Books for different romantic subgenres: contemporary, fantasy and paranormal, and historical. They’re all watchable at the Belmont Books YouTube channel.
This year, I’m just doing two, but I’m so excited for them. We have some amazing authors joining us!
Saturday, August 21 at 12pm eastern: We’re discussing contemporary romances with foodie flair with authors Sonali Dev, Farah Heron, Anita Kelly, and Suzanne Park. Attendance is free! You can also order books through Belmont Books and they ship throughout the U.S.

Saturday, August 21 at 2pm eastern: This one is for all the fantasy romance readers! We’ll have authors Lana Harper, Chloe Neill, and L. Penelope to talk about world building, magic, and romance. Free to attend!

I hope you’ll join me this Saturday! Or, if you plan to attend other events, let me know which ones you’ll be watching this weekend!
Oooo! I’ve read and liked L. Penelope’s Song of Blood and Stone…
Don’t know if i’ll be home and settled from work by 2, but i’ll make a calendar note just in case!
I’ve never heard of Bookstore Romance Day, but I’m so happy it exists! And now I have a list of romance-friendly, independent bookstores to visit whenever I travel again.
