Summer is finally here in full force, and all we want to do is sip on some icy lemonade 🍹 and chill under the sun. ☀️
We’re still hoping you’ll be able to enjoy the outdoors safely, maybe go for a walk in the park or by the beach, or just stay home, truly social distancing. Despite everything, we know books will always be by our side no matter what, right?
