The Last House on Needless Street | Catriona Ward

I‘m in #SanDiego California for work and was able to go to this super cool local bookstore, Mysterious Galaxy.💫📚

They specialize in fantasy, sci-fi, YA, mystery, and horror. Awesome atmosphere and inventory, plus really great staff. They recommended the tagged book for those who like gothic haunting stories.

Oh, and you can‘t beat the views or the weather here. Wish I could stay longer!

I love my local #independentbookstore ! Today, they hosted a bag sale—fill a bag that they provide for $5.00. I stuffed my bag with the pictured books and still had room!

I suspect I‘ll be able to use a few of these for the #192025 challenge. I‘ll gaze at these for awhile and then wonder where I can put them until I can put up more bookshelves! 😂

While on a Louisiana road trip, I stopped at The Conundrum bookstore in St. Francisville. It had a perfect reading area and friendly atmosphere. #independentbookstore

Another little gem of a shop today. In an area famous for lobster and crab - found Mr K an old cookbook on how to prepare both with very 70‘s style step by step photos. He‘s chuffed!

squirrelbrain Lovely! ❤️ 2y

Leftcoastzen I think I‘d love it! 2y

tpixie Cute name and store!! We love buying cookbooks when traveling. #IndependentBookstore 💜📘💜 2y

Carmichael's Bookstore | Louisville, KY (Bookstore)

Hey friends! I'm alive! Traveling for work this week (hello Louisville, KY) and I made my way over to a local bookshop. An entire table celebrating Women's History Month! I got a little reading in and drove around quite a bit, with no touristy things done yet, and I leave early Saturday. Oh well... there's always next time.

I loved this style of signage seen throughout the store.

bthegood Love the sign - if you like baseball and have time there is a tour you could take

enjoy your stay and safe travels 🙂 2y

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @bthegood Thanks for the rec! I love baseball but this trip is so jam packed I won't get over there. I'll be in town (hopefully) a couple more times this year for work and plan to bring my guy out for a long weekend to do the touristy things. I am hoping that I can make it over to the OVW office today to touch base with an account set up by my predecessor while simultaneously trying not to fangirl about their wrestling history. 😁 2y

Book Moon Books | Easthampton, MA (Bookstore)

Very busy work week in Western Massachusetts but I did find a little time to visit a few bookstores.

Top stack from Odyssey Books in South Hadley. Right by Mount Holyoke, they sell merch for the college & highlight books from school professors & alumni. A good selection of popular books & a bookcase dedicated to translated works.

Bottom stack from Book Moon in Easthampton. Small store, large variety, with a special section for Small Beer ⬇️

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Press books, such as the bottom two. Located in a cute downtown area with hip little stores. This was my favorite.

I also visited Booklink Booksellers at Thornes Marketplace in Northampton. This had the most popular selection, some sale books, and I finally bought a physical copy of The Prisoner of Heaven by CRZ because I have it on audio CD & borrowed an ebook from the library. It's time I owned a copy.

TheBookHippie Oh dear, the letter I sent you got mailed back to me because I forgot to put your apartment number. I am so sorry I will resend it had your valentine in it. Oops. 2y

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @TheBookHippie No worries! It'll just be a random surprise. My building has 22 apt and a few ground floor businesses. Everyone's mail ends up in our lobby. They could've just left it there like everything else & it would've found its way. 2y

The Green Toad Bookstore | Oneonta, New York (Bookstore)

We discovered a really cute #independentbookstore today while out 🧶 shopping.

vivastory Have you used one of the bean bags for print books before? Looks like it'd be handy for e-readers, but curious how it'd be for paperbacks/hardbacks.... 2y

Soubhiville I have a bean bag and I love it, especially for heavy hardcovers and I use it with my kindle too. 2y

MaleficentBookDragon @vivastory no; this is the first time I‘ve seen one of these. I bought it for my kindle. I do use my #bookbeau #bookbean for hardcovers (and as a pillow). 2y

SheReadsAndWrites Im curious about the book...🤓 2y

MaleficentBookDragon @SheReadsAndWrites me too. I had never heard of it. It just jumped out to me. #goodreads doesn‘t have it coming out until Tuesday. I guess it was meant to be. 2y

SheReadsAndWrites I am eager to see what you think! It looks interesting. 🤓 2y

Gissy I‘m curious too for those bean bags. First time I see them😳🤷🏽‍♀️🤗 2y

Harriet | Elizabeth Jenkins

pick

Harriet is a young woman with a small fortune. A mental disability makes her an easy target for the handsome and unscrupulous Lewis Oman. After winning Harriet's love, Lewis, along with his brother and mistress, sets in motion a cruel plan to get his hands on her money.

A very good, shocking story, not in the least because it is based on a true one from 1877

JenniferP I‘ve read all my Persephones! Maybe I‘ll put some more on my birthday wish list - this sounds great! 2y

AshleyHoss820 Sounds good!! Love the picture, as usual! ☺️ 2y

BarbaraBB @LeahBergen I‘d have liked to read this with you but my challenges decided otherwise 🤣🤷🏻‍♀️ 2y

BarbaraBB @JenniferP they are always such a comfort to read. Every couple of years I allow myself to buy six of them, of which Persephone sends me one a month: it feels like a gift when another arrives! 2y

Cinfhen This does sound interesting!!! Perfect for GREED 😊Also love the photo 😘 2y

squirrelbrain This sounds so good! 2y

Cathythoughts Sounds like another good one. Stacked. 2y

BarbaraBB @Cinfhen Greed indeed! 2y

BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain @Cathythoughts worth stacking! 2y

JenniferP @BarbaraBB I did this a few years back, but I believe they stopped this service to the U.S. Sad! 2y

PuddleJumper Brilliant! 2y

BkClubCare Love Persephone Books 2y

thewallflower0707 Love Persephone Books, I visited their bookstore in 2019, before they had to move. Did you get the chance to read A Town Called Solace yet? 2y

BarbaraBB @thewallflower0707 That is so cool, that you‘ve been there. I‘d love to go to Bath one day to visit their new shop. I haven‘t read your book yet, but I will soon! I will keep you posted! Am looking forward to it! 2y

BarbaraBB @JenniferP That is sad indeed. It is hard to Netherlands too these days, thanks to Brexit. 2y

thewallflower0707 @BarbaraBB that‘s great! It was nicely decorated too, and right around the corner from Gay‘s the Word, a beautiful LGBTQ bookstore with lots of history. Shame they had to move. 2y

BarbaraBB @thewallflower0707 Absolutely. That sounds great. But I want to visit Bath one day anyhow, so much history there! 2y
