Pride & Prejudice...no zombies this time.

Join us on Thursday, 4 March at 5:30pm for the inaugural meeting of our First Thursday Book Club.  Get in on the ground floor of a book club in the making!

Our first selection is Jane Austen's immortal, inimitable Pride & Prejudice.  We invite you to read (or reread) this classic tale of money and marriage in Regency England--then sit down with us to discuss it over tea and cookies..  Future discussion books will be selected at this meeting.

 

  

...love poetry!  Seduction, sensation, delight, despair, commitment, confusion: great writers have been expressing it for millennia.  Give poetry to your love for Valentine's Day! 

FREE LOVE: Tell us your favorite love poem on our Facebook page  and you could win a copy of Pablo Neruda's glorious Love Poems in the beautiful little Pearl Edition from New Directions Press. No purchase necessary, not much fine print: we'll assign each entry a random number and draw for the winner on Wednesday, 10 February.  Value of prize $9.95 or endless and timeless, depending on your view of love poetry.

Links, news updates, comments & conversation from your independent bookstore!

The books we love best reveal surprising things about who we are.  For example, Nena didn't think of herself as an optimist until she took stock of how many of her favorite books are science fiction--which begins with the assumption that we will still be here tomorrow.  Check out our favorite books, and find new favorites of your own, on our personal pages.
