Probably biased, but my friend Isabella Burley runs the best independent bookstore happening right now. Also, in male dominated book and zine world, her amazing FEMALE perspective is great. She has substance and style and I am excited to welcome Climax to NYC when she opens a Manhattan outpost soon.

Firstly, Printed Matter duh. I love it there, it truly is a hub of cultural phenomenons and information on everything and anything you can find in book-form. I also checked out Climax recently since they opened their East Village location. SOOOOO cute. very small, but amazing amazing selection. Dashwood is a classic. Miwa has my heart, shoutout her. Mast is cool but they give a little too pretentious for my liking. I still go in every time I pass it though. Karma is sick, has a really cool collection of Purple's first volumes and such. But I'm looking for more shops, lmk where I should gooooo!

"New York's only queer, trans AND sex worker run bookstore"
had the pleasure of visiting Bluestockings on a recent excursion to the city, and it will have a place in my heart forever. the selection is incredible, with a great deal of curation and incredible workers who can help you find or pick whatever catches your fancy.
this is to say NOTHING of the incredible services they provide, like narcan training!

I got too much going on to know where my shit is. Plus I have things that go missing ALL the time. I last year invested in having the wonderful Kathy come and professional organize all my stuff and Iβve NEVER ever looked back. I get ready in two seconds, I know where my hot sauce is and my eyeshadows are labelled. Bliss!
