New Release Tuesday is back again! Your Iron Dog booksellers have thoroughly judged this week's books by theor covers and have approved, both of their exteriors and the stories beyond them. Inside you'll find a disenchanted post grad with a developing obsession for her boyfriend's cat, a delightfully uncomfortable dinner party satire a plant shop owner with a green thumb and dark motives, and an author misusing someone else's story in a desperate attempt to grasp literary relevance.

Swipe to the second photo for a better view of some of the enticing books landing on our shelves today! 📚

The mania that is inventory day is now over, and we've come out the other end largely unscathed and with a fresh stack of new releases! This week we've got a postal mouse, a room full of objects held during someone's last moments, a s*x worker turned political assassin, and a very sad monster. Check these and more out under "New and Exciting" on the website!
