Description

<p>Yeah, that old feeling again. If Two Moore Books, LLC, had a third partner, &quot;Disappointment&quot; would probably be their name. Perhaps our expectations are too high, but it was a rough week between Book Release Day and making the tough decision about taking our cross-country trip.</p><p>We are not alone, of course, so we used our feelings and coffee to fuel our discussion about this week&#39;s events (good and bad) and to gain perspective. In the big scheme of things, we&#39;re doing okay. Really.</p><p>I finally redid the <a href="https://carsonhume.com/2026/03/20/99-cent-update/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>99 cent book page</strong></a> so it&#39;s much easier to navigate.
