We give thanks!
“Fiction is art and art is the triumph over chaos… to celebrate a world that lies spread out around us like a bewildering and stupendous dream.”
― John Cheever
It's Fall! And, we're a tiny bit late in getting out the newsletter--we hope everyone remembered to put their clocks back on Sunday! Boy, it's getting dark really early!
Downtown Zebulon hosted the annual Trick or Treat on the Square this past Thursday when we welcomed all manner of ghosts, goblins, and superheroes. What a great group of kids and parents stopped by! And, many thanks for the Pike County school system's donation of kid's books for all the participating merchants and civic groups to go along with the candy!
And, consider ordering your holiday book titles a little earlier than usual--we're hearing that supply lines may still be a little iffy again this year. Please don't forget that indie bookstores offer on-line ordering from BOOKSHOP--you can order from our very own page and support our store from the comfort of your home. And, thinking about the upcoming season, stay tuned for our annual collection of "stocking stuffers"!
We welcome the local chapter of the Georgia Nature Photographer organization this month for their beautiful photo show on the wonders of nature and wildlife. Stop by and enjoy the show!
We wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving--we will be closed on Thursday, November 28th but we'll open on the Friday and Saturday of that weekend--stop by with friends and family to catch up! And, as always, let us know what you're reading!
