The Bloom Crew is a group of readers helping Flowers Bloom Anyway reach as many people as possible. This includes preordering the book, requesting it at libraries, sharing it with book clubs, and showing up to support the launch.

Books reach more readers when they’re visible in bookstores, libraries, and book clubs. Preorders, library requests, and word-of-mouth all influence how widely a book is stocked, discovered, and discussed.

You can preorder through Barnes & Noble, your local independent bookstore, or other major retailers. Barnes & Noble preorders are especially helpful for physical bookstore placement, but every preorder matters.

When readers request a title, libraries pay attention. Submitting a request at your local library increases the chances the book will be purchased, shared, and read by many more people over time.

Book clubs are one of the most powerful ways stories spread. Discussion guides and request scripts are included in the Bloom Crew Toolkit to make choosing Flowers Bloom Anyway easy.

The launch party is a casual gathering the week after release for Bloom Crew members. It includes a book signing, Q&A, and time to celebrate together. If you can't attend in person, you can still live-stream virtually. Register to get the link.
