July prompt is ready to go. Just wanted to pass on above information.

I will give about a month‘s notice so we have time to research and source books. If you‘re not a librarian it may be time to make friends with one. Lol. I googled prompts too and found book lists for all. Yay. As soon as you know what you‘ll read post so we can all see using #BookedInTime and tag me. Thank you.

repost for @BookwormAHN:

In May we had a young Han Solo in a legend that predates the Solo movie and is quite different. I think I may prefer the newer history with Quira. What did y'all think or prefer?
This month is The Hutt Gambitt which should be entertaining. Love a big narcissistic space slug.
