Canadian Independent Bookstore Day (CIBD) is the annual day when readers, writers, illustrators, publishers, and others come together to celebrate indie bookstores across Canada. By joining the celebration, you are advocating for independent businesses, supporting a flourishing bookselling community, and investing in Canadian culture. We are celebrating Independent Bookstore Day with the following:
Meet & greet/ book signings, with Gina N. Brown (Sugar Bowl Feud and Pickled in Love) from 10:30 am- 12:00 pm, Charlene Carr (Hold My Girl, and We Rip the World Apart) from 1 pm to 2:30 pm, and Donna Jones Alward (When the World Fell Silent and Ship of Dreams) from 3 pm to 4:30 pm.
We will have a revised scavenger hunt for the kids. Completed scavenger hunts will get a free picture book, while supplies last. The older kids will get a free ABC canvas tote, also while supplies last.
Customers with purchases of over $50- before taxes will get their choice of a mystery book, while supplies last. Mystery books are different from our Blind Dates books. Mystery books have the genre on the front, along with a quote from inside the book.
We will also have a table set up with 20% off new local books as marked.
We hope to see you Saturday, April 25th, between 10am and 6pm!
