February is a short but robust month for books! With one signing already under our belts for the month (thanks, Karen Stokes!) we look forward to lots more to come, including this Saturday’s “make-up” signing with Julie Packett’s new middle-grade release, Battling Bots.
PLUS, we’re celebrating romance titles all month long, and numerous featured titles at 10% off to celebrate Black History month. We’re also hosting just one book club this month: Our Living Large book club is eager to discuss the poignant debut release from Brendan Slocumb, The Violin Conspiracy. Appropriate for February as we love, love, LOVE this book!
Don’t forget our state-by-state tour happening at our online bookshop – this week we’re visiting Colorado… Selections include some real winners including no doubt the best known set-in-Colorado novel, Stephen King’s The Shining.
Get reading, folks, and we’ll see you on Main Street…
