Bubbles and Books

She wrote Amanda & Ellyn's favorite book of 2023, she takes her book on walks around Paris, listens to Bubbles & Books, AND NOW is joining us on this episode of Poppin' Off. If we had created a manifest list at the beginning of 2023, podcasting with Julia Langbein, author of American Mermaid, would be at the top.

Ellyn is giving us a lesson in personality types. She recently introduced the concept of the Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator to several of our booksellers which prompted the question of readers and their types. Listen to find out if you think they match the type the results concluded.

Please note. We are not MBTI professionals and this was all for fun. If you would like to take the same test we did, you can do so HERE.

Ellyn, Amanda and Rachel recently visited 13 bookstores in New York. This episode is all about the experiences, bookstores they visited, cocktails and more. One of the best things is when indie support indies, and that's what this New York Trip was all about. Tell us what region we should go explore bookstores next!
