Need some last minute stocking stuffers for a reader? We're wrapping up these holiday books! paperbacks for $1 and hardbacks for $3!
December 21, 2025 at 7:22 PM
just got in a complete set of A Series of Unfortunate Events, including The Unauthorized Autobiography (all that's missing is The Beatrice Letters)! This series i will always sell as a set when possible, so this will be $70 for all of it!

I have to be honest: the only book with Jane Austen's name on it that I've read is Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (which I think is a great book)
December 19, 2025 at 9:10 PM
just as I was reclaiming one of the shelves, more James Patterson 😅
Sale is still on! James Patterson paperbacks for $1, hardbacks for $5! (same for Nora Roberts, JD Robb, Clive Cussler, and Stuart Wood!) And I will gladly do bulk discounts 😁
And I got some more Tom Clancy.

@sagerelleanne.bsky.social dropped off some more blind date bundles, and brought in a new omnibus with hand painted edges!
Also be sure to come check out @alexstar23.bsky.social's romantasy The Librarian's Story while we still have it for the pre release!

Sorry, I forgot to post on here earlier, but I think the set up I had at the The Garden Cafe's Christmas market turned out pretty good!
December 14, 2025 at 1:15 AM
ok I've been talking about this for a while, let's do it I need the space.
All Nora Roberts/JD Robb paperbacks are $1 and hardbacks are $5! I'll also throw in James Patterson, Clive Cussler, and Stuart Woods!
This will be indefinite, until I finally have some space for other books!

adding this Shakespeare and Company edition of Alice and Wonderland to the classics!

While I do have a section of children's classics, this will be with the others. you can certainly buy this edition for your kids, but I'm not putting it with the kid books it's too nice 😅

Adding a bunch of books for young readers to the $5 cart and getting out more kids books.

Most of these came from the Jefferson County library in Colorado! They've traveled a long way!
December 9, 2025 at 9:18 PM
some other books we've gotten in for teens and kids!
December 9, 2025 at 6:23 PM
I'm done reading them, so it's time for Phoebe and Her Unicorn to hit the shelf! I love this series and am really happy to have some in stock for y'all.
If you aren't familiar with the series, it is reminiscent of classics such as Calvin and Hobbs and Peanuts.
December 8, 2025 at 8:04 PM
so here I am, reading a comic book for kids after midnight, when it has the nerve to call me out.

Volumes 1 - 14 of Phoebe and Her Unicorn will be available in the store... when I am done reading them

Ever see a book posted that you really want to get but just can't make it anytime soon? Are we a bunch of enablers who will encourage you to buy books you may not actually need by making it easier?
December 7, 2025 at 12:49 AM
We will be at The Garden Cafe ~ Christmas Market! This will be our first time doing a market and I don't exactly have any idea what my setup is going to be like but I have a week to figure it out???

By the way, a commission from @bluefantasyz.bsky.social makes a great Christmas gift (and I'm always telling her she doesn't charge enough)
