Got the winter blues? Us too, but we channeled it into a display of #bluebooks. . . . #bookstore #indiebookstore #usedbookstore #winterreading #bookstagram #shoplocal

Resolved to read more in 2020? We can help with that. Take 20% off store-wide today! Open until 8pm. . . . #HappyNewYear #indiebookstore #bookstores #NewYearsDay

3 little SciFi/Fantasy picks, all in a row! The Three-Body Problem (recommended by Max), This Is How You Lose the Time War (recommended by Meagan), and Prudence (recommended by Niv). . . . Here's what Niv has to say about @gailcarriger 's PRUDENCE: "Gail Carriger gets two thumbs up from me. Love her style of writing! This book is about a young woman, Prudence Alessandra Maccon Akeldama, with rare supernatural abilities, who travels to India for a spot of tea. Along the way she encounters shifters, vampires, and an irritatingly handsome Frenchman. This #steampunk adventure is seriously funny and witty." . . . #staffpicks #shoplocal #indiebookstore #bookstores #sff #scifi #bookstagram #giftideas

More #staffpicks: #poetry recommended by @wildfiregrrrl (Soft Science) and @annemetcalf53 (Eyes Bottle Dark With a Mouthful of Flowers). . . Here’s what Kathleen has to say about @fancyrhino’s SOFT SCIENCE: “Told from the perspective of a queer Asian American cyborg, Soft Science explores what it means to embody yourself when you are not-human, not-robot, not-defined, and not-accepted. Please read this book.” . . . #indiebookstores #bookstore #bookstagram #staffpick #bookseller #giftideas
