“love is the whole and more than all”
E. E. Cummings - A Selection of Poems
Hello - welcome to Books & Cleverness!
My name is Kelly Brianne Hall. I’m an Aquarius, INTP, and Enneagram Type 4.
I live in Tennessee with my husband and two dogs where I spend my time joining too many book clubs, writing poetry and maybe even a novel, and hiking the Appalachian region.
In 2019, I purchased my first truck, a 1990 Ford box truck, to take B&C on the road. In 2023, we upgraded to a newer and bigger truck. Now, I travel my region of Tennessee, Virginia, North and South Carolina as a mobile art and bookstore.
Inside, you’ll find my hand-lettered and drawn art, high-quality prints, a book boutique of my personal recommendations, a curated selection of gently used books, and so much more!
