Anyone else on BookTok? I\u2019ve always been a reader, but lately I have been even more into reading. Could it be the weather and the sun setting before 6 p.m., making it so I have no desire to leave the house? It\u2019s possible. That being said, I will\u00a0leave the house to grab the latest book on my list, typically coming from my TikTok For You Page. Calgary has plenty of independent book stores, and these days, supporting local is so important.<\/p>\n
