We have a wonderful sale, some great events, and where we are as continuing to serve our community.

We are cleaning out for summer and have so many great titles at 50% and 60% off. Please come help us clean out the store for new arrivals.

We have a great event coming up on May Saturday, May 16th at 7pm. Books & Letters is teaming up with cookbook author Gabi Moskowitz of Dead in the Kitchen: The Official Grateful Dead Cookbook and Pikniktown Market for a night of Dead Music and food from Gabi's cookbook. Books will be available for sale and to be signed by Books & Letters. Here is the link for tickets: eventbrite.com/e/1987656651551?aff=oddtdtcreator (https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1987656651551?aff=oddtdtcreator)

I love serving our community and the bookstore sometimes feels more like my home than my home does. I get to meet some many wonderful people from all over the world and form new friendships within the Lower Russian River Community. We took a hit when the tariffs were introduced. It didn't so much affect our cost, but it affected the mindset of our bookstore guests. People were understandably frugal. We recovered. However, since the start of the war in Iran and the surge in gas prices and so many other things, we are back to figuring out how to keep going.

We really need your continued support. Whether you buy a book or a card or a pen, it all helps.

Thank you for keeping the store alive and from a recent book I read, "I'll see you on the other side."

-Michael
