Funny Little Cuss Party

The horrors persist, but so do we, bae-by!!!

Bookish, East Atlanta's indie bookshop, is hosting an after-hours hang on April Fool's Day. And you're invited- no joke. Join us to celebrate books that remind us to laugh... so we don't cry.

• Make balloon animals with the punkest clown we know: Chuckles from Gate City Tattoo!
• Race wind-up toys in an epic Dinos vs. Robots battle.
• Play dress-up in our roving Photo Booth to capture a fun selfie.
• Shop exclusive tees & totes designed for booklovers by our team and screenprinted right here in ATL.
• Enjoy complimentary sodas & nostalgic snacks as you browse our curated collection of books designed to deliver much-needed levity to the world.
• Bring a friend or come alone and make new ones!

HAVE YOU JOINED THE 2026 READING CHALLENGE?

Bookish is hosting a year-long, FREE reading challenge designed to help you discover new books and meet cool people. We sorted 134 diverse, engaging titles into 16 different categories.

Read 12 books from 12 different categories in the 2026 calendar year, and you'll win an exclusive tote designed and screenprinted by Simon of Team Bookish. Even better? Read 24 books from 16 different categories within the year to score that tote PLUS an exclusive Reading Challenge tee, too.

"Funny Little Cuss" is just one of those sixteen reading categories, so this party is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to ways to indulge your love of reading. In the Bookish Reading Challenge, you track your own progress. You can get the books via your local library, our Bookshop.org link (for delivery to your door) or by stopping by our physical bookshop in East Atlanta. We don't care how you get your hands on these books- we just want you reading! Join the challenge right over here.

ATTENDING THE PARTY
This event (like all Bookish parties) is free to the community, but space is limited. We request RSVPs so that we can all move comfortably about the bookshop and to ensure we have enough food and supplies on-hand. Each attendee should register individually with a separate email.
