Thou shalt not cause Savannah to cry. Or any other indie bookseller for that matter. Shop local, friends. If we don't have your book at the moment, we can probably get it within a week. 😉

P.S. Amazon owns Audible. If you want an audiobook source that pays your Anthology team rather than a billionaire, we've got it: https://libro.fm/anthology4books

A few things for you to bookmark this week:

📕 Our friend KATIE is reads and reads and then she reads some more. And she's passing that passion onto her children, who are proud members of our Anthology for Kids Club. That's good parenting! 😉

🔎 Breaking from the norm, the Anthology book club is reading poetry this month. Pop in to pick up a Shel Silverstein book and join us August 18 at 7PM for a lighthearted evening. Sign up: https://withfriends.co/event/28248714/august_2026_book_club

🚽 Dav Pilkey's best books of the past are now releasing in full color! We just received a stack of "Super Diaper Baby: The Invasion of the Potty Snatchers." Come and get it, or order online: https://bookshop.org/a/104963/9781338687866

👂🏼 Did you hear? We carry earrings now! You keep complimenting our booksellers' looks, so we're going to help you make your own style statement. These make great gifts, too!

The Anthology book-choosing team must have been in a mood when we ordered this week‘s new releases. So much drama and darkness! Here, you will get one book for young readers, one coming-of-age novel, and a whole lot of thriller, horror, and fantasy. Enjoy!

Geneseo is amazing! Like when you open the bookshop for the week, and one of the first guests is a fellow business owner who waltzes in with a beautiful bouquet, "just to brighten up the space."

That's what this little town is like, and we're so happy with the camaraderie that pulses through Geneseo's business community.

Thank you, Dr. Crystal Strode of Vibrant Health Geneseo. You are a treasure, and we're glad to know you!

How can it possibly be August?! Don't tell the children, but school is starting sooooon. 😃

Our store hours change today, so drop in to party with Dianna between 10AM and 2PM. You might ask about her basement snakes. Or snake. Or partial snake. 🐍 Maybe she'll show you a photo, which Beth refuses to post here. (Note that both Dianna and Beth learned things about snakes this week. GROSS.)

Scroll through our pics to see what's up with the rest of the Anthology crew, and then drop your own updates in the comments. 👇 Though your in-person visits are our favorite, we love getting to know you this way!

Happy August and Happy Weekend!
