I had the pleasure of visiting Northern Bookworms in Parry Sound a few weeks ago, and I can't recommend them enough. I added a bloody handprint to their wall, shared some scary stories, and signed Haunted Canada, Summer's End, or House of Ash and Bone!

Throwback to the end of the school year when I visited @Readergirl4 for 2 days of school visits! I didn't get many pics (I was having too much fun!) but after the 7th and final presentation I had to fit in a quick photo shoot in the cemetery across the street! 🪦👻 @scholasticcda
