To all of our customers who came to see us during our sale, thank you. We wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you and we deeply appreciate your patronage.

Today is the last day of the sale! 😱 That really flew by. We are open 9-3p and hope we get to see you before we take a break for the next week.

After today, the store will be closed until through August 25th, reopening on Wednesday, August 26th. See you then!

It's officially August so it's time to make that announcement again...our Anniversary Sale is almost here! 🎉

As we've done in years past, 2026 is no different. The entire store (yep, everything) is 20% off! It will run from Wednesday, August 12th until Sunday, August 16th during our normal operating hours. 📅

If you've been on the fence about visiting, this is a great opportunity. Come on in and take your time strolling the aisles - Romance, Children's Books, Westerns, Biographies, US History, comics, magazines...books on Art, Gardening, Math, Religion, Cooking... there are many more categories to browse. This is the tip of the iceberg. 📚

For the amount of money you spend on a date to the movies, or taking the kids to the arcade, or any number of outings - an afternoon looking through more books than you'll know what to do with is not only a beautiful chance to spend some quality time with your friends or family, but your dollar will stretch a lot farther and the screen time is minimal (or nonexistent)!

You can always get a head start on holiday shopping. 🎁Or stocking up on books for the cozier weather. 🍂🍁 Fill your beach bag for the rest of the season. 🏖 Panic-read your summer book report assignments (or at least the Cliff Notes). 🎒Or just spoiling yourself rotten, no special occasion needed. 💖

Whatever your reason, it will be lovely to see you! We always look forward to seeing our perennial patrons as well as meeting new faces. 😊

Immediately after the sale, the store will be closed from Monday, August 17th through Tuesday, August 25th. The store will reopen on Wednesday, August 26th. Time for some R&R! 🛋😌

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸

My, how we’ve grown. 🥹 It seems like only last week we were dumping $1.7 million dollars worth of tea into the Boston Harbor. 🫖 ☕️
Now we’re celebrating 250 years of independence! 🎆

We are open from 9-3 today. Might be a fun time to enjoy an air conditioned walk through our American History section, especially Revolutionary History!

Enjoy your celebrations and, as always, please be safe. A reminder that no one has ever been given a breathalyzer test or lost a finger while reading, if you need an alternative way to celebrate. 📕

Can you believe it’s July? Didn’t we just celebrate New Year’s Day?

It’s been beach weather for some weeks now - what have you been reading this summer? Have the schools assigned anything interesting for summer book reports?

Oh my! Sunday was so busy that we forgot to wish all the dads and dad-figures a very wonderful Father's Day! We hope it was a lovely day for you all!
