A member of a Facebook reading group set off a flurry of comments this summer when she posted: "Getting a new-to-me car on Wednesday. Daydreaming about BOOKISH LICENSE PLATES. Need inspiration."
People threw out a bunch of ideas: FOREWRD. PGTRNR. BK LVR. BKSRGR8. I READ. BOOK IT. GET LIT. (That last one might not bring books to mind ...)
"Mine is LVIOSAH," one reader noted on the thread. "I get lots of comments." Another said hers is HANDMAID. (Some states give you eight slots for vanity plates.)
That got me wondering: What's the plate you'd get if you felt like splurging? (Or did you already?) Hit reply to let me know. 👀
As for the reader with the new car: She settled on plates with a word that was right under her nose in the original post: BOOKISH. Love it.

A few more cool & bookish things
HR Moore's paranormal romance Nation of the Sun has this intriguing premise: Their demon lives spun around each other. Their souls, like magnets, pulled back together in every lifetime.
Amari's life as a successful food critic engaged to a high-flying lawyer seems perfect. What she doesn't remember are all her previous lives: She's an ancient demon who reincarnates. And her soulmate, Caspar, finds her too late to stop the wedding.
As she's drawn into Caspar's world of standing stones and feuding nations, Amari can't deny the deep connection that pulses between them—or the secrets pushing them apart. Without her memories, she can't know whether to trust him. And only if she wakes her demon soul can she get those memories back.
