Publishing as a business can be achingly slow, inefficient and frustrating... but at the same time, it can be filled with the nicest people doing their best to accommodate budgets, changes & deadlines, despite being overworked and underpaid themselves.

Heads up, Bookworms: There will likely be💀supply chain issues💀 this holiday season. So if there are specific books you have your heart set on for holiday gifting, I strongly suggest you buy/order them ahead of time (✨like now✨) rather than waiting until November/December.
