We need the character bookstores bring to neighborhoods. We need them as spaces of safety, solitude, community, joy, empowerment, and connection. We need indie bookstores because they mean something different to every person who steps in them.

Can’t wait to get your hands on one to today’s amazing new releases? Then we have good news: we’re opening Friday! See you soon!

Pre-order President Obama's book from an independent bookstore. Books like this make their whole year. The publisher will be under pressure to prioritize Amazon if they run into any stock shortage - help indies fight that.

Just a reminder while we’re all feeling outraged about taxes. Support your local bookstore.

It’s officially the 4th quarter. Many bookstores’ futures depend on what happens in the next 3 months. I don't know about you, but I hope the world on the other side of all this is still full of indie bookstores. Here’s why this is gonna be a strange Q4, and how you can help.

You know what is a really, really fun job? Selling people books. I love selling people books.

Thank you!
