The delightful author Emily Brightwell dropped in to say hi and sign books! It’s always a pleasure to see her.

Okay, this is just GORGEOUS:

Amazing things happening with the used horror titles today!

We have some cool posters, fans, and keychains from the forthcoming movie #Smile2 to give away in store! #SmileMovie

#overheardinthestore: “They’re going to ask me to explain the lengthy gap in my resume and I’ll have to say ’Oh, that’s when I was reading Sarah J. Maas and the Malazan books full-time.’"

Look what just arrived! (Don’t mind me, I’ll just be up until 4 am with this 1000 piece puzzle.)

Time once again for our occasional series "Women with great hair fleeing gothic houses!" And today I count down my Top 10 of most gothic goths a' fleeing...

Apparently the frontlist ordering is all about poultry today?

Every time I do a frontlist (forthcoming books) order, I find yet more titles that are wildly unsuitable for our genre-specific shop, and yet so compelling. . . .

It's the last day of September, so that's officially Summer in San Francisco (for the next 2 weeks or so). Put on your tank top & shorts, brave the only-a-couple-times-a-year 90+ degrees, & come see us to get a book to read in the shade!
