Friends, I have left the building. As a business owner, it may seem like a bizarre time to walk away, when the pre-Christmas craziness is just kicking off, but your girl needs it.

And my team is more than ready to step up and be there for you. You are in great hands. I will still be posting on socials, but I will also be sharing the posting duties with one of my team, so you’ll get to hear from another DCBC voice!

During this month, there will be a few changes:
- no transfers between stores
- no deliveries
- we will not be accepting new Local Author book submissions
- send emails to [email protected] and our amazing Booksellers can answer your questions

When I return, maybe I’ll do deliveries with a tan, who knows?

Have a wonderful few weeks, and I’ll see you soon! ☀️

It’s another wonderful Book Birthday!!

Did you know that books are released on Tuesdays to maximize the New York Times window for tracking potential bestsellers, which goes from Tues to Monday?

In the US, there is roughly a book published every 8 seconds, the equivalent of almost 11,000 a day (zippia.com) - a combination of traditional, rerelease and self published titles. In Canada, there are about 14,000+ published each year (Assoc of Canadian Publishers).

Most books sold tend to fall into the 80/20 rule: 80% of readers purchase 20% of new titles. That is not new, it is why there are trends.

Readers have a cornucopia of new reads to tempt them and add to Must Read lists.

These 5 books are our latest offering to your temptation lists!

To here are so many page to screen adaptations coming out now, some remakes, some sequels/prequels, and for all ages.

If you have seen on our TikTok page, we have been asking both bibliophiles and cinephiles what their fave adaptations are, and because at DCBC we love movies too, and we carry both books and DVDs, so it’s an ongoing discussion around here.

There is a very popular YA dystopian series that is getting another prequel this month and we are SO psyched for it… ready for all the feels. We may even have a fun “Sunrise on the Reaping” opportunity for you as part of our Popcorn & Pages partnership with Landmark Cinemas Canada and IndieBookstores.ca - stay tuned for details. 🍿📖

When you see these ingredients and this iconic cookbook in our house, you know Winter has begun.

On the first Sunday when snow has fallen and stayed upon the ground, I make Julia Child’s Beef Bourguignon.

My house will smell like scrumptious beefy and onion stew cooking slowly in a whole bottle of red w**e. We will dish it over mashed potatoes and pair it with a Chardonnay. Normally, I would also make buns to soak up all the delicious sauce, but today I bought buns instead. Sacrifices had to be made.

I turn to page 315 of “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” and I get to work. Sure beats taking a screenshot off a Pinterest recipe.

Do you have any food traditions that are rekindled when you pull certain cookbooks off your shelf?

8 years ago, I dressed up as a Book Fairy and gave out candy and free coffee from the back of my booktruck.

This year, Oct 31st started at a funeral. It was a beautiful celebration of a life well lived, and I thought how bizarre it felt to be in a cemetery on Halloween.

So, while we delight in scary books, we love a horror movie, and we thrill at the dark and ghastly yard decorations for the kids (and grownups) to enjoy while they seek out pillow cases full of candy, I hope you are living your story well. Make this the most fun Halloween ever!

Eat the candy. Scream the loudest. Wear the crazy costume. Have a blast.

Here’s to a safe and exciting Halloween 🎃!

“You’re staying open, right?”

This question is one we get asked a lot, especially after the loss of many small businesses in Beaumont in the last year.

Whether we stay open or not is actually up to YOU. We can have the cutest, most welcoming bookshop with a wide range of titles for all ages. We can keep the place clean and organized. We can staff it with local readers who are eager to assist you. We can invest in all these things. And we don’t have the power to stay open.

You have the power.

This goes for all small businesses who care about you and want to make a difference in Beaumont’s “small town vibe” and cozy legacy for visitors and residents.

I’m not going to tell you where to shop. You know already.
I just want to remind you that like all local small businesses and restaurants, we notice when you stop coming.

I think I can confidently speak up for all the little guys when I say we look forward to seeing you again.

“What type of books do you read in your Book Clubs?” is something we are asked often.

Honey, the list of books is so varied, I couldn’t explain it in any other way than to say “We read whatever books each Club is curious about.” We do not tell them what they should read. This is not school. They are grownups who know what books they would like to read & discuss, some are wins and some are duds. The only way to know is to read and share opinions.

We have read biographies, historical fiction, local author fiction, romance, thriller, scifi… you name it!

The whole point is to make our reading lives more vibrant, choosing books with some depth or unique themes and ideas make for better discussion, even if it’s a book we didn’t enjoy. Reading outside our comfort zone is the point. We have found that flat, formulaic books are NOT good for discussion, so we have often chosen books that are richer in character development and ethical dilemmas.

We have a display in the store that you can see what books we have chosen, and help yourself to see if they are ones that inspire YOU to want to talk about them too!

Last night’s Silent Book Club night out at California Pizza Kitchen 🇨🇦 was a big WIN. A little snow didn’t keep these dedicated bibliophiles away!

It was our first night at this new space, and the restaurant’s team couldn’t have been better at creating a space with the right lighting, limited noise, and very kind service staff for our group of readers. This location invited us to read quietly, make new friends, see familiar faces, enjoy a wonderful meal, and really embrace the satisfaction of reading collectively.

Did I say “amazing” too many times in my video? Possibly. But it’s an appropriate word for last night. Seats are already filling up fast for the last Wednesday of November, so if you want to join us, send an email to [email protected] and we will send you information.

Thank you, California Pizza Kitchen team, and Kelly, for being such a generous host. Silent Book Club

Thank you, Bonnie, for this insightful and fun discussion in the bookstore.

“It feels unique to this generation to ignore people with a phone instead of the old way we used to do it, pretending they weren’t there, or reading so they wouldn’t bother us. And when we talked after reading, we often had smarter things to say because books were so valuable for vocabulary and learning.”

Preach it, Bonnie! Sometimes we just don’t want to “people” anymore, and we need to retreat. She’s not alone.

Put down your phone. Go pick up a book. Ignore people the old fashioned way.

Yes, we have copies of the book everyone is posting about.

But, we also have so many fun and beautiful ACOTAR items such as notecards, puzzles, a journal with silver edges, and more!

I’m just sayin’, it’s not all about one pretty book. 😉
