If you’re a regular reader of this here li’l blog, you’ve probably noticed I’ve been absent as of late. Between coming back from Haiti, the holidays, and y’know, life in general, it’s been a bit busy.
For example, this is where I am right now:
(That’s Japan.)
Just wanted to let you know I haven’t forgotten about you. And if you’ve seen some awesome covers, do let me know. (And no, I’m not trying to play the lazy card, I’m genuinely interested.)
I’m also hoping to find and explore a Japanese bookstore while I’m here. Here’s hoping I find a severe lack of SGiPD covers.
Last but not least, I hope you have a wonderful new year!
Yay, you’re in Japan! Hope you enjoy the vacation with your parents. That’s a lovely picture, lomo or instagram? I have a feeling you’d enjoy browsing in a Japanese bookstore, they have some beautiful covers for US/UK books over there.
Instagram, C! If you use the app, look me up, my username is “Capillya.”
Awesome we’re in the same continent! Enjoy Japan, and I hope you get to eat tons of good food and have a wonderful New Year with your family.
Thanks, Tina. If only I could visit with y’all down south, I would! This vacation won’t be near as long as I’d like it to be. =)
Don’t give up on the SGiPD! Sometimes they have a story!
<3, your perpetually optimistic book-cover loving pal. xoxo
ps) New on my bucket list: a trip to some big bookstore to spend time peeping book covers with that cover girl. I think we'd often have differing views and many laughs. I think we'd also have the same views and many hi-fives.
I love your optimism.
And I’m definitely putting this on my bucket list, too.
Oh my gosh, you have the best life ever
I hope you have a wonderful trip and happy holidays. I will be happy to rejoin the blogosophere at the beginning of the year and I look forward to having you back too!
Thanks, Sommer! It’s so good to be here visiting with my family. I’ll see you after the new year, too. =)
Enjoy your vacation!!
Thanks, L! Happy new year!
Have so much fun in Japan! It’s been one of the places I long to visit, since i was in the seventh grade. I hope you’re having a blast!
I am, thank you, Sarah! Happy new year!
Japan! SO JELLY! Capillya, you are so well traveled and that is AMAZING.
I hope you have THE BEST TIME EVER and find gorgeous book covers
Oh oh and that you get to eat pocky that stuff is delicious!
Yes, Pocky SO YUMMY. I’ve yet to find some gorgeous book covers, but hopefully I will before I leave.
Have you discovered Holly Goldberg Sloan’s “I’ll Be There” yet? I bought it because of its fabulous cover and it’s one of the best books I’ve read all year.
I have discovered it, but thank you so much for dropping the suggestion, Kate. I did a li’l interview with the designer/illustrator, Neil Swaab, if you’re interested –

I still have yet to read it, but good to know you enjoyed the novel!
Happy New Year! YAY Japan!
Merp! You’re close to me! Swing by!
(No, actually, that would be very difficult for you. I’ll just enjoy the fact that you are in Japan.)
Have a wonderful time in Japan and will catch up with you when you get back
