Last day of finals! You did it! To celebrate, we invite you to come grab a book from one of our friendly gnomes.

Free books! Gnomes on tomes are way less judgy than elves on shelves. Plus, they’re standing on free books! Come check out our selection of fiction books, located under our friendly gnomes, and take one home today! The books, not the gnomes. The gnomes stay here.

Who needs an Elf on the Shelf when you have a Gnome on Tomes? All our Gnomes are sitting on FREE BOOKS! Take a study break and come grab something to read during the holidays.
