Thanks to buyer Lane’s expert curation, our nonfiction sections are stuffed with hidden gems, including a book that digs into the history of gems. Niche histories are so cool — who wouldn’t be thrilled to learn about liminal urban spaces or the ideology of Paradise Lost?

Weird fiction is a staple in this household - Cloe has been enjoying (freaked out by?) horror novella WALKING PRACTICE by Dolki Min this month. She cannot find a bookshelf to sit on that doesn't have something a little "weird" on it #MeowMonday HarperVia

Happening now is a dinged & dented sale! Sometimes our books see some rough handling during shipping, and they show up a little dented or torn (but still very read-able!!), so we're offering them for 20%-40% off. Swing by and find something to hunker down with this weekend! 📚❄️
