Adventures of a Soul on the Road
Independent bookstore news from Malaprop’s in Asheville and Freedom Rocks in Asbury Park.

Malaprop’s in Asheville
This just in, Reader: Beloved indie Malaprop’s Bookstore & Café, in Asheville, NC, will be stocking my book in upcoming weeks. SO many thanks to my cousin Phyllis Ann Collins Salomone, for pitching it to them, and to Senior Buyer and Manager Justin Souther for, to quote ABBA (and who doesn’t take any given opportunity to quote ABBA?) taking a chance on me—and my book!

Freedom Rocks in Asbury Park
I’m also excited to announce that Adventures of a Soul will soon be available at Freedom Rocks, a fantastic crystal and all-things-New-Age-y emporium recently relocated at 550 Cookman Avenue in Asbury Park, just a short, foot-bridge-walk from Ocean Grove. In addition to its massive collection of crystals, in a literal rainbow of colors (such a treat to look at and hold!), it features a section of well-chosen (if I do say so myself) New Age books, distinctive tarot and oracle decks (Disney Villain tarot cards, anyone?), crystal-studded jewelry, whimsical sun-catchers, and more. You can experience an aura reading (book ahead on Instagram), which comes complete with a snapshot of your individual aura’s unique hues—it’s next on my list!

And be sure to take a selfie with their set of full-size amethyst crystal wings! Many thanks to the lovely and aptly named owner Danielle Angel for taking a chance on me and Adventures of a Soul. We hope to do an event involving some of the practitioners from my book there later this fall.
