Reading this book for class, and we‘re about halfway through. I probably excessively annotate and bookmark, but I never have trouble finding what I need! #startsomethingthatmatters #nonfiction #blakemycoskie #toms

Ramona.Tanay Is it worth reading it? (edited) 5y
RavenNight @Ramona.Tanay definitely! It‘s really fun to read, and really interesting. I found a lot that applies to life in general, and not just starting a business. It‘s really short, too, so it goes fast! 5y
Ramona.Tanay @RavenNight thanks so much, will def. put it on my reading list then:) 5y

TOMS (the buy a pair, give a pair shoe company) is donating $5 Million to organizations committed to ending gun violence.

As part of their #endgunviolencetogether campaign, if you go on their website you can send your representative a postcard calling for universal background checks. It takes just a minute, Litsy friends--I'd love to see our many voices added. 💜✌🏻

(And the tagged book is a quick & interesting read.)
