Are You a Bookseller?

In the US, I'm apparently not stocking young adult books written by people of different ethnicities. It's simply not true. We do not stock and choose not to stock books that we don't believe are of adequate quality. There is a curation that goes on within individual book shops. Do I think that individual booksellers will put a book that they personally disagree with in a less prominent position to one that they do? Absolutely. Will they dress up their windows to poke fun at politicians that they don't like? Yes. Would they ever get reprimanded by a thank you? That's one of the things we say. Just remember you're a bookseller when these things happen
