I was on a sunset cruise in Key West when the girl next to me usually mentions that she's going to get her next read at Judy Blume's bookstore, and my head could not have snapped faster. .. one of my favorite childhood authors owns a bookstore?!
Yes! And it's in #KeyWest -- where she LIVES.
So off I went to #BooksandBooks
Judy wasn't in that day, but she did have loads of recommendations (as did other staff and volunteers, which were all excellent).
I left with "The Paper Palace" by Miranda Cowley Heller, which Judy Blume said "I couldn't eat, couldn't sleep until I'd finished."
Put this independent book store on your #floridakeys itinerary!
