There's still time to read The Left Hand of Darkness.

Few science fiction novels have had a greater impact on conversations about gender, identity, society, and culture. More than fifty years after publication, Le Guin's ideas still feel remarkably fresh.

The novel has been challenged because of its treatment of gender and sexuality, making it an important addition to our Banned Book Club lineup.

Join us at , Corsair Distillery, on October 11 at 1 PM.

You don't need to finish the book to take part in the discussion.

There's still plenty of time to join us for October's Book Club.

We're reading Weyward by Emilia Hart.

This is one of those books that lingers. You finish a chapter and find yourself thinking about it later in the day. The relationships, the history, and the quiet threads of folklore all build into something that's as reflective as it is compelling.

One thing I've learned from Book Club is that books like this only get richer once you hear what other readers noticed.

Don't worry if you haven't finished it. Some of the best conversations happen when people are at different points in the story.

Weyward is available in the store and through Bookshop.org.

We'll meet Tuesday, October 13, at 7:00 p.m. at .

We hear Poplar Point is planning an Over the Garden Wall theme, complete with a craft activity and candy. Our theme at Taylor Street Art & Books is top secret. Not because we haven’t thought of it yet. Because it’s top secret. Thank you for respecting this highly classified situation.

Join us from 5–8 PM for an evening of local shops, live music, and exclusive specials throughout the building. Our new neighbors at Lonicera will also host a short watercolor class!

Bring a friend, explore the shops, and spend a little of your Friday evening with your Marathon Village neighbors.
