Y'all say hi to Lily. She is the cutest first grader ever and she like to make art. She thinks that I don't make Books to be Red spooky enough for Halloween so she brings me her work to hang up and enjoy. It makes me happy every time I see it.

The Healing Garden in the words of my friend, Kate, is a babe of a book. Juliet Blankespoor is the founder of the Chesnut School in Buncombe County, NC. Juliet lozt most everything in Hurricane Helene. I will be donating $10 per book directly to Juliet.

Please stop in to Books to be Red while you are on

Please stop in to Books to be Red while you are on Ocracoke. Plan to check out our fundraiser for relief efforts in western NC that will be running for this month. There will be a rotating display featuring books from western North Carolina authors or fiction that takes place in WNC. Look for the books with the colorful sticker on the front table, $9 from each book will be donated to one of the groups working hard to help. This first group I have chosen are the Mountain Mule Packer Ranch. Those packers and mules have made some amazing and inspiring deliveries to areas where the roads are all but gone. Today was our first day and we already have about $210.
Feel free to suggest your favorite WNC books!
