A place for people who like to read We carry a wide array of books appealing to the fast shopper or slow browser.
Fiction, non-fiction; contemporary, vintage; fun, boring; esoteric, mainstream. Basically, we have a book for you (or several, if you’d prefer).
Almost finished the window but it’s time to break for a little holiday.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving, everyone ❤️
We have polluted the heavens.

An amazing night with Michelle McLeod and Sara Saljoughi, both so generous with their insights and stories. We had a fantastic audience with great questions that rounded out that wonderful evening.
That’s a wrap for this year’s Book & Film Club.
Watch for the announcement of next year’s pick!
Many thanks to Michelle McLeod Sara Saljoughi and Fox Theatre
