Congrats on the new graphic novel, Mattie! Simplicity sounds like a fascinating read, and the description alone has me intrigued. Touring so extensively for Boys Weekend definitely speaks volumes about the lasting impact of your work. I'm curious to see how the themes you explore resonate with readers now. Maybe there's even an Eggy Car cameo hidden somewhere within the panels? Jokes aside, best of luck with the launch and the tour! https://eggycar.onl
Bookshop.org is my preferred online retailer--for print and ebooks. Your money goes to support independent retailers. In fact, you can choose any indie you want to support, anywhere in the country! Amazon is able to sell books at such a deep discount because they use them as loss leaders to get you to shop for everything on Amazon. This isn't good for books, authors, or the economy as a whole. We don't need One Bookstore to Rule Them All. I like to spread my money around and I shop at bookshop.org, my local indies in person, B&N, and direct from small publishers. I recognize that not everyone can afford to make this choice, but if you can, I recommend sending your dollars elsewhere. Amazon doesn't need your business and basically all other retailers do.

Love Mattie's comics about Palestine! Will definitely be buying the book!
The link for Mattie's book sends us to Bookshop.org. Is this an advantage over Amazon?

Thanks Kate. I see Amazon has Mattie's book at $29.00 (!) so Bookshop's not only better but cheaper.
Sooo precious to share your success, Ma’am. Write on forever.
