This Independent Bookstore Day (Sat., April 25) we'll be hiding a @librofm Golden Ticket inside a book somewhere in the store. If you find it, you win free audiobooks for an entire year! Libro.fm will also be offering a free audiobook to anyone who visits 10 participating stores, so make sure you come by.
Just about one month out! 81 bookstores are participating this year. Visit 15 on Independent Bookstore Day and get 15% off at all 81 for the rest of the year. Visit 10 and get 10% off. Visit fewer than 10, and have a delightful spring day of book shopping. Everybody wins!
🔥🔥🔥It's hot out there and in here! Long-awaited copy of FIRESPITTER: THE COLLECTED POEMS OF JAYNE CORTEZ, plus the new album by @lil.g.finn (which is just for Michael, alas).
On the night we met, 18.5 years ago, we went to see Sabertooth, who were then the late-night band at the Green Mill. We're all a lot older now, so tonight, @aliversonchicago and I went to see Sabertooth at 6 pm at Andy's, to celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary. I still like him pretty okay.
Did you all see the great feature on @archipelagobooks in @newcitymag ? Thanks to a generous customer with a subscription, @jarvissquarebooks has this little collection of pristine Archipelago books at used prices. ($5-$10.) Come see them!
28 degrees out, and I'm supposed to wake up and leave the sleeping dog who's currently acting as a hot water bottle. Whose idea was it to open a store? Or have a job?
