Welcome to Tubby & Coo's Shelf Improvement, a program to help you improve yourself and your shelf! 

This year's program focuses on family and everything that can mean. Each book recommended this year features some kind of familial relationship - from found family to single moms to siblings to polyamory to adopted children and everything in between. We hope that by reading these, you'll interrogate your own ideas of what "family" means. 

Join the discussion here or on our other social media channels (@tubbyandcoos on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, & Twitter) by tagging us and/or using the hashtags #shelfimprovement and #tubbyandcoos.

 

This year, we're releasing all 12 recommendations right now! This gives you the whole year to purchase the books in any order you wish. If you purchase all 12 of these books by the end of this year, you'll receive 10% off all of next year's selections.

 

Please submit your receipts here when you buy books for the program to record your reads. You will need to log into Google first.
