Behind the Bookstore
Hi! I'm Brianna, the girl behind Roses & Reads!
A little about ME!
I have a small herd of Boer goats that I am currently working on growing!
I spend a lot of my free time with the goats, whether it be chores or just sitting out there with them and soaking it all in!
I'm a coffee addict. Give me a good strong coffee and I'll be happy lol
I love reading! Reading is my biggest escape! Hence a Bookstore!
I also struggle with chronic pain so doing something like reading while I'm in a high pain time, helps!
TV shows and movies are another favourite pastime, some favs are Outlander, Clone Wars (go Star Wars!), LOTR, and too many more to name! I'm also a huge nerd/geek and will fixate on certain fandoms/shows and learn everything about it
I grew up in Southern Ontario and then moved out to Saskatchewan during high school. It was a big change with lots of highs and lows but I also wouldn't change it for the world!
Now here is a little bit about Roses & Reads!
Roses & Reads has gone through many shifts and changes over the last few years and I'm so happy with how far I have come! It started out as merch for my photography business, then I shifted into a wide range of clothing and tumblers with my cricut, then I added baking (with my sister), and then I shifted into a bookstore and guys, nothing has ever felt more right.
Yes there are good and bad days, ups and downs, days I wouldn't change anything and days I wonder if all the work is worth it. But at the end of the day, it always is!
The items I create, share, and sell have been inspired by my struggle with mental health and chronic pain. This is my way of sharing with you what has helped me get through the hard days.
