Independent Bookstore Day

Celebrate Indie Bookstore Day

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. But in addition to authors, live music, cupcakes, scavenger hunts, kids events, art tables, readings, barbecues, contests, and other fun stuff, there are exclusive books and literary items that you can only get on that day. Not before. Not after. Nowhere else.

Join us for special promos, signed books, exclusive swag,
and the grand opening of Book Stop on Book Lovers Lane!

We're cutting the ribbon on our new Book Stop window at 10:00am sharp! Stop by the store to join the celebration.
