The Snail on the Wall Bookshop, Huntsville, Ala.: "FINISH THE SENTENCE: 'Once upon a time, two bored women opened a bookstore'.... [These fabulous shirts are from our friends and fellow Alabama booksellers at Thank You Books in Birmingham, who received a one-star review that called their store 'a pet project for a bored woman trying to assert her intelligence, but falling short.' The intelligent owners turned the review into merch and a rallying cry for bored women who are making our world more interesting. Thank you, @thankyou_bham !]"
