I can't believe I have these three books in at the same time!! Far & away the most highly requested books of 2026. Just missing Theo Of Golden! Lol If you haven't read these yet, you've still got two months of 2026 left to finish them & boost your end of the year Goodreads number. 😄

I personally have read Yesteryear & loved it - would highly recommend! Drop a comment if you'd like to claim one of these literary darlings. ✅️

ALL BLIND DATES - $10!!! THIS WEEK ONLY!! 👀🎉🎉

It's time for Christmas blind date books (the most popular ones!), and so it only makes sense to have a sale to make room for the new ones. This is a GREAT deal! All general blind dates & the Halloween ones on sale for just $10. That means $7, $8 off each one! In some cases, $10 is HALF OFF. 🤯 So, stop by this week to pick up a beautifully wrapped & adorned mystery book for yourself or a book loving friend. Come help me clear up space for Christmas! 🎅

JERRI'S PICKS!!! 😍

Soooo many of the books at Genres call to me, and I do love them all, but these ones in particular have my heart at the moment. Of these books, I've only read maybe two or three. But as any reader knows, collecting & admiring books is just as fun as actually consuming a story. I love the books featured for their pretty covers, their uniqueness & many other reasons i'm not able to properly articulate. I just like 'em! Lol So, I thought I'd make a reel in hopes one or several catch someone else's eye too! 👀

Genres will open back up for the week Wednesday at 11am!

NEW BOOKS!!! 🚨🚨🚨 PICK YOUR NEXT FAVORITE!!! 🤩

Just look at all those beautiful covers. Feast your eyes! 👀 Lol! If you see one you'd like, simply text or comment & I'll put it to the side for you. There's a permanent "on hold" stack behind my table in the shop. Add yours to the pile!

As a reminder, Genres is open Wednesday thru Saturday. Come browse all these new titles in person!

😂😂💀💀 HALLOWEEN-THEMED BLIND DATES ARE HERE!!!! 🎃

Yes, that is an actual photo of Stephen King pulled from a newspaper article written about him in the early 70's. Will post the article in the comments!

If I was going to recommend a Blind Date, this would be the one. I ADORE Stephen King & no author is more perfect to read on a dark October night...🌘 Come to Genres to see all the spooky blind dates available!

Couldn't let banned books week pass without highlighting selections from our year-round banned books table!! ✊️

With the onslaught of AI & the literacy crisis looming large, reading is truly more important now than ever. As for what to read...how about the books that are being contested in town hall meetings & removed from school libraries across the country? Books that are thought-provoking & incendiary! Aka worth the read. A good book should challenge you, make you feel something, and the books in this post certainly do that. Scroll to have a look! 👀

See something you like? Leave a comment or send a message and I'll put it on hold for you. FYI that Genres is open until 3pm today. Hope to see you before closing for the weekend!
