Whitney Library’s Independent Book Event Kicks Off Today—Let’s Get Into It!

Hi Hive, 

Book lovers, it’s go time! Today marks the start of Whitney Library’s Independent Book Event, and if you’re anything like me, you’re already excited to see what indie authors have in store.

Indie books have a special kind of magic—stories that break the mold, voices that don’t wait for permission, and authors who pour their hearts into their work. This event is all about celebrating those creatives and giving readers a chance to discover something fresh and unexpected.

Whether you’re into gripping thrillers, swoon-worthy romance, powerful poetry, or something totally out of the box, chances are you’ll find a book (or five) to take home. And the best part? You get to meet the authors behind the words, hear their stories, and maybe even snag a signed copy.

So, if you’re in Las Vegas, make your way to Whitney Library and get ready to immerse yourself in the indie book scene. I’ll be keeping an eye out for standout reads—who knows, one of them might end up on my next review list!

Are you planning to check it out? Let’s talk about it in the comments!

While the bill lacks cosponsors and faces uncertain passage, similar anti-pornography measures are advancing in states like Oklahoma. Bipartisan support exists for related bills such as the Kids...

January 1, 2025 – As the new year begins, JPMorgan Chase is grappling with a series of high-profile lawsuits that highlight vulnerabilities in its operations and raise questions about its role in safeguarding consumer trust.

Hi Hive,  Football fans! Buckle up, because Super Bowl LIX is bringing the heat with a rematch that's got everyone buzzing. On February 9, 2025, at the iconic Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles are set to face off once again. If this feels like déjà vu, you're spot on—these two teams clashed in Super Bowl LVII back in 2023, where the Chiefs edged out the Eagles in a nail-biter, 38-35.  The Road to the Rematch The Chiefs, led by the dynamic duo of quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce, have been on an absolute tear.
