Your reading life deserves a human touch, not an algorithm!

Instead of participating in "Prime Day," we urge you to aid in our quest of fighting big corporations by shopping small October 6th & 7th. To combat Amazon's deals we're offering people in our Membership program 15% off all their purchases as well as a CoffeePeople coupon (expires on 11/31).

Supporting indie bookstores does more than fill our shelves. It supports local jobs, local events, and a space built for community. Thank you for being part of the resistance and keeping money in your community.
