Barely Tolerable Without a Book Tee

For the reader who is doing her best, but would be doing better with a book in hand.

The Vibe

Barely Tolerable Without a Book is for the girls who are sweeter after a few chapters, quieter with a full TBR, and absolutely not responsible for their attitude without adequate reading time.

The soft editorial script gives this tee a feminine, polished feel while the phrase keeps it funny and self-aware. Perfect for bookstore runs, book club, coffee dates, cozy reading days, or any moment where your patience is hanging on by a plot twist.
