A little bit from Hachette to refill some shelves!

Folks, we’re looking to get better at sharing with you - in store happening and personal moments. We’re starting small - this little pile of books willed with creative treasures - each with different flavours. Some, personal favourites, and others, just stories that sounded interesting.

See anything here you like? Let us know, and share with our people! :)

We have a new off-site intern! Meet Cookie, who works remotely from my sister’s place.

Cookie is a very patient little puppo who visited the shop alongside my mom, sister and my nieces on Free Comic Book Day this past weekend.

Great dog. 12/10!
