🚫Banned Books Week🚫 starts today!

These books have been challenged or banned all over the country, often for dark or “inappropriate” content (but who gets to decide that for other people?). If we were more comfortable as a country having hard conversations about real life, especially with our youth, maybe there would be a little more empathy and understanding in the world. We believe books are an amazing way to bridge gaps — and picking up a banned book is a great place to start 💫

I (Katie) had an amazing time at the Aspen Literary Festival this weekend! It was an honor to moderate a talk with the incredible Fonda Lee, who is so generous with her wisdom, and facilitate readings from local writers at the Aspen Writers Network tent.

Thank you to the Aspen Words team for putting together a fantastic event. Very cool of you all to invite the authors of some of my personal favorite reads of the year like Fonda (The Last Contract of Isako), and also including:

✨Veronica Roth (Seek the Traitor’s Son), who high school and adult Katie will never get over meeting;

👑 Ariel Lawhon (The Pirate Queen) who is a queen herself;

📖 Rioghnach Robinson (Bad Words) who in fact wrote lots of good words and I’m preparing to not shut up about this book when it releases Oct. 6th;

📕 Bobby Palmer (Main Characters) who came up with one of the coolest book concepts I’ve ever heard;

💧and of course Pete McBride who I am biased towards, but everyone should pick up a copy of Witness to Water and look out for an upcoming event with Pete when his next book comes out this fall 👀

There were even more talks I couldn’t make it to — thank you to all the wonderful authors who made the trip out to our corner of the mountains🏔️❤️📖

We will have some signed books at Alpenglow thanks to their generosity, first come first served!

Yay books!!!

Have you checked out our new and notable books table recently? We’ve got signed copies of the new John Green, his first novel for adults! Plus lots of other amazing books, both fiction and nonfiction.

And if I’ve ever wondered what it’s like to run a bookstore, Receipts from the Bookshop hits the nail on the head 😊
