These two wonderful people are siblings Garth and Margo Johnston, who reached out to me when I lost my lease. They are now my landlords, or, as I prefer to call them, my “angels.”

My usual hours are now 1–6 pm. Please call ahead to check for weekly variations in the schedule; my hours are here on my website, on my voicemail, and posted in front of the shop. I’d also be happy to make an appointment at a time convenient for you.
Worldwide shipping, local deliveries by bike, gift certificates, registries, and free gift wrapping always available!
Mastercard, VISA, AMEX, Discover (both credit and debit), personal checks, and traveler’s checks accepted. Oh yes, cash, too.
PLEASE NOTE:As of March 3, 2016, I will no longer accept Amazon/Prime VISA cards. You can probably guess why.
“DO YOU BUY BOOKS FROM INDIVIDUALS?”
I hear this question every single day. Yes, of course I do! That’s where I get 99% of my stock. I don’t usually buy entire collections; I carefully choose books that suit my shop.
The easiest way to show me what you have is by taking digital photos of the books on shelves or in stacks, so that the spine titles can be read, and emailing those to me. If you have fewer than a dozen books, call and read me the titles. Donations are also welcome!
It has been my great pleasure to serve up a delicious selection of cookbooks to customers near and far for the past 28 years.
PRIDE BOOKSTORE CRAWL THIS SATURDAY! On Saturday, June 20, seven local bookstores (of the 18 or so now in the nabe) will take part in our annual Pride Bookstore Crawl. Each shop will offer special perks, special merchandise, and/or special snacks, and a joyous atmosphere will prevail (trust me, it's a party). My perk is to pay your sales tax, so all prices will be pleasingly round, no pennies needed, and you'll be saving almost 9% on your purchases. My tote bags, usually $6, will be $3. Each store will also hold a raffle, and the prize for mine will be a $50 gift certificate. The Runaway Brides will be available for selfies, and if you've never met the Runaway Brides, be sure to stop by—it's their 15th wedding anniversary! Special hours Saturday--11—7.
Coming to the shop? I post my hours here every Sunday night, and you can also check them by phone; they may not be the same every week. (Ignore hours you see posted on Google; they don’t originate with me.)
If you can’t come in during open hours, make an appointment for a time that works for you. Please give me as much notice as possible.
Looking forward — to everything!
