Hope everyone had a good Solstice this week. While you're waiting for the weekend to start:

- Vroman's in Pasadena is a wonderful independent bookstore (with an especially brilliant children's section, if that is a need you have), and we hope you will help support it by coming to see us there: [**WE ARE APPEARING AT VROMAN'S at NOON on SUNDAY**](https://www.vromansbookstore.com/fug-girls?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)**.** Please come! If you are in or near L.A. and you want to say hi -- take pics, ask questions about the blog (or J Lo, or *Dallas* or whatever), pull our hair, talk about Diet Coke, get your books signed, etc. -- this is your LAST CHANCE for the foreseeable future. So come out and say hello! Your faces will be so much prettier than a bunch of empty chairs.

\-- Also, [thanks to Melissa Walker and Barnes and Noble for featuring MESSY in a Cover Story](https://bookclubs.barnesandnoble.com/t5/Unabashedly-Bookish-The-BN/Cover-Stories-Messy-by-Heather-Cocks-and-Jessica-Morgan/ba-p/1351310?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)! (B&N)

\-- Mother Jones has made a series of faux campaign ads for characters in *Games of Thrones*, and they are awesome, especially the one for [Daenerys Targaryen. WRONG FOR DRAGONS, WRONG FOR THE REALM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ao4HVlV7wZU&&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). (You Tube)
