Independent Bookstore Day is a one-day national party that takes place at indie bookstores across the country on the last Saturday in April. Every store is unique and independent, and every party is different.

Details to be announced but we will have a few authors, sweet treats, kid events, and exclusive books and literary items for children and adults that you can only get on that day. Not before. Not after. Not online.

You will be able to preview these items most likely the week before!

So mark your calendars NOW!
