We had so much fun celebrating the end of the Where's Waldo scavenger hunt. We love seeing families coming out to explore the independent businesses in our community, and this year was a great one!

A huge thank you to everyone who participated 💕

Three reasons why VERA STEIN IS FINE should be your next beach read:

☀️ It's actually laugh-out-loud funny

☀️ Representation! Vera is a curvy woman, she's in her 40's, she's facing a career crisis, and she's moving in with her grandmother- proof that romance can happen at any age and stage 👏

☀️Vera's new lease on life gets spicy- you'll want a body of water nearby to cool down 🥵

Bonus point: it's based in a retirement home filled with forgotten scream queens, eccentric screenwriters, and heartthrobs of the past- so bring on the ✨drama✨

Releasing August 4th: award-winning musicians and longtime partners Raine Maida (Our Lady Peace) and Chantal Kreviazuk offer a behind-the-scenes look at fame and staying connected through it all.

A raw, honest journey through the highs and lows of a couple working through therapy, I'M GOING TO BREAK YOUR HEART reminds us that the goal isn’t perfection — it’s the commitment to keep showing up, to keep trying, and to keep choosing each other, one imperfect day at a time.

Available in store on August 4th!
