Hello, bookstore friends! We wanted to share that we are slowing down our bookstore activities, particularly on Saturdays inside the Athens-Limestone Public Library.
We started this store as a passion project to increase access to diverse books. Now, our kids (10 and 13) have begun to have passions of their own, which keep us very busy most nights and weekends. Also - and we are so very happy about this - several amazing bookstores have opened across North Alabama, giving readers multiple ways to see themselves represented on their shelves.
We are not completely closing yet - We have a handful of book events and Christmas markets that we are very excited about. You can find us at the events below and we will be open inside the Athens library as we can.
You can always email us for special orders, or shop online at bookshop.org/shop/greenebooks and libro.fm/greenebooksathens
