We're still holding onto the Valentine's Day blush, but we’re interested in all kinds of love—messy, quiet, obsessive, unexpected. How We Know Our Time Travels by Anita Felicelli encompasses them all. 💖🧡

What kind of love do you like to read about? Comment down below! ⬇️

This Valentine’s Day, we’re celebrating love in all its forms--the love of books, the love of language, the love that happens when independent presses make space for daring, thoughtful work. ❤️📚

Share the love. Support independent literature.
