Author Everett Potter came in recently to share his book "100 Train Journey's of a Lifetime". Potter has spent decades traveling the globe and writting for a variety of publications, including National Geographic for the past 15 years.

Even though Potter is a world traveler, his family has been summering in Maine since the 30's, and Potter himself has owned a camp on Highland Lake since 1966. We were so happy to have him visit us and share his love of the area, and sign a copy of his book for our store. ๐Ÿš‚

Underlake By Erin L. McCoy - 20% off
Twelve years ago, Otta escaped her small town, determined to become a marine biologist. Now she's returned, carrying the guilt of a friends' disappearance during a deep-sea dive and unsure she'll ever be able to dive again. Then a stranger, May, appears at her door, insisting that her daughter who ran away is under the nearby lake--alive.

YESTERYEAR By Caro Claire Burke 20 % off
Signed First Edition
"Natalie Heller Mills is a traditional American woman, a beautiful wife and mother who sells her pioneer lifestyle of raw milk and farm-fresh eggs to her millions of social media follwers. Her farmhouse is charmingly rustic, her husband a handsome cowboy, her six children each more delighful than the last. So what if there are nannies and producers behind the scenes, her kitchen is hiding industrial-grade fridges and ovens, and her husband is the heir to a political dynasty? What Natalie's followers don't know won't hurt them."

Robyn recently took a two week trip to Japan, and had this to say about her experience there:

"Of course I brought a book from your store and a book mark. Although my yard in Bridgton is full of deer I had to visit Nara to experience the bowing deer. Here are some facts about them:

In Nara, a city not far from Kyoto, Japan, you will find thousands of Sika deer roaming the town. Considered sacred, these deer are protected and their population flourishes thanks to a supplementary diet of hand fed "deer crackers". The deer have a reputation for politely bowing for their crackers."
