happy 50th birthday to us!
We are so excited to offer lots of fun programs, events, & other special surprises during 2025. be sure to check back in to this page as we plan out more!
book of the month club
(& meet ups!)
We asked what our community wanted to see us offer and Book of the Month club & Book Clubs were the two biggest responses! We have combined these two ideas with Book of the Month & BofM Meet Ups! Each month (February - November) we will feature a different book that will be 10% off. We have a variety of genres represented throughout the year!
The last Thursday of each month, we will open the store for folks to come and talk about the book while enjoying some complimentary snacks & warm drinks. Please note we will have to cap the attendance, as we only have so much room in the store. You will need to sign up for the Meet Up in advance with a bookseller. Sign ups will open at the beginning of each month for that meet up. Please use the Contact form, call in, or speak with a bookseller at the store to be added to the list!
We hope that folks will make new friends with similar reading interests at these events and create their own book clubs afterward! We love to facilitate these connections, but don’t have it within our capacity to run book clubs on our own.
