oh oh oh - what do we have here - a new handmade book, ‘BANANA BREEZE’ by MISAKI KAWAI and JUSTIN WALDRON - !! - a sharp scenester would have to stop and ponder: does this indicate a new significant other - in Misaki’s colorful world ?

on a top shelf: ‘Public Wall Writing in Philadelphia’; center - a perennial fave - BRIAN CHIPPENDALE’S amazing hardcover comic book tome, from PICTUREBOX; and - what looks to be: ‘Stealing Peechiesa’ !! ? gotta go back & check that one - o-u-t !!
