Sunny's Holiday Hotline

I'm here with a holiday offering. Got a bookish loved one who’s impossible to shop for? Welcome to Sunny’s Holiday Hotline, where you send us all the details about the reader in your life and we hand you a perfect, weirdly spot-on book to gift. I'll do my best to get to as many as possible.

Last year this brought us such bounty as:

• "A rec for my best friend who loves drama but says she ‘hates conflict'."

• “A book for my mom who texts ‘call me’ with zero context.”

• "I want a book that feels like watching the sunset from a parking garage."

• "A book that feels like the last song at a middle school dance." 

• “For my dad who reads books about World War II and absolutely nothing else.”

I'm hoping to up the ante this year with specificity, hit me with your worst.

Store news

• The Saved tee is coming back in a new colorway!!! Do you love?

• I have a big ol' merch restock coming in addition to the above, should be done next week in time for gifting season. 😇

• We're doing a bookish cookie decorating party that is sold out already, will let you know if any cancellations come up on our Instagram to grab a ticket.

• Our angel tree is up and we're partnering with Border Kindness to get some deserving kids books once again. If you make it into the store before the end of the year, consider adding this on to your purchase.

• There is still time to sign up for the December book club, The House of Beauty. An essay collection on the terror that is the beauty industry.
  

That's it for me today! Thank you for your continued support of Sunny's. I know you don't need the reminder but a gentle nudge to shop small this holiday season on behalf of allllll the booksellers I know in this economic downturn is greatly appreciated. Love ya!
