📚💔 A little unexpected plot twist…

Unfortunately, Inchstone Books will be CLOSED tomorrow, Friday, October 9, due to a roof leak in our store.

As a small business, unexpected closures like this hit us harder than you might realize, and this is certainly not the kind of surprise we had planned for this week.

We’re working to get everything cleaned up and back to normal as quickly as possible. We expect to be open on Saturday and as of now, plan to have our Saturday evening Thrifted & Haunted event as scheduled.

Thank you for continuing to show up for our little bookstore. We couldn’t do this without you!

Okay, Inchstone Books family! The secret is officially OUT.

We’ve been building something big: Inchstone Books is bringing the New Port Richey Book Festival to Downtown New Port Richey on December 13th!

We’re filling downtown with featured authors, panels, signings, workshops, a curated Holiday Bookish Market, sensory-friendly experiences, family fun and holiday magic. If you're an author or vendor interested - applications are now open! Link in comments!

From here on out, the big reveals are happening at NPR Book Fest. Go follow, share the announcement, and save December 13. We cannot wait to show you what we’ve been working on. See less

Things bookstore owners (& book club groupies!) do in the really rare moments they aren’t working at the bookstore:

- Read
- Visit other bookstores
- Go see shows about our favorite authors/books 😂

Grateful for a great Sunday afternoon out with Tiffany (Novel in the Neighborhood), Jen Murray & Rory McLeod at Stageworks for 89 Minutes of Jane Austen!
