Juneteenth. đŸ’Ș🏿🙌🏿

Books have long preserved stories that educate, challenge, and inspire us to better understand our shared history. This Juneteenth, we encourage readers to explore the voices, experiences, and contributions of Black authors whose works continue to shape our world.

May we honor the past by listening, learning, and ensuring that every story has a place on our shelves and in our communities. â€ïžđŸ’›đŸ’šđŸ–€

One of the many gifts that Fred and the bookstore have given me also includes my love of Ann Patchett.

In 2023 at one of our first meetings about my possibly buying the bookstore Fred slid an advanced reader copy of Tom Lake across the table to me. And an introduction happened. Tom Lake was one of the best books I’d read that year. And that worn ARC has a special place in one of our home bookshelves.

This year, it was me passing along the advanced reader of Patchett’s newest novel, Whistler, out on shelves today! It’s a beautiful woven story of family, passing time, perspective and relationships. I adored it.

There are so many great books releasing today, including Maggie O’Farrell’s newest, Land, a gorgeous novel about the years before and after the Great Hunger. We’ve got these and more ready for you to hit your summer reading goals!

If they start by pretending, can they end with something real?

Dolly Brick has never met a problem she couldn’t solve. Not when her mom left when she was twelve, and not at thirty-nine when she moves with her son back to Whitfield, Rhode Island, for the summer to keep her dad and brother from losing the family home.

So when she comes across Stewart Whitfield—annoyingly handsome scion of the Whitfield family—with a flat tire and at the wrong end of a very public, very humiliating breakup, it’s in her nature to help. But Stewart’s proposed arrangement ends up being more than either of them bargained for, because as public dinners and high-society benefits turn into sunset boat rides and kisses that hit her bloodstream like a ghost pepper, Dolly starts to feel something more than helpful. She’s never relied on anyone besides herself—can she really start now?

“This book is like a spicy margarita
sweet and a little salty, tart and hot
I have fallen in love with Dolly and with funny, fizzing Annabel Monaghan!” —Catherine Newman, New York Times bestselling author of Sandwich

One of the best parts of being the person who orders books for the store is getting advanced reader copies from authors I already love. The hardest part is waiting months for everyone else to read them so I can finally talk about them too.

I’ve loved Matt Haig ever since I picked up a copy of The Midnight Library from Mr. Fred at this very store six years ago, back when I was just another regular customer.

Today, Matt Haig’s newest release, The Midnight Train, is finally here. While it exists in the same “midnight” universe, this is a completely standalone story and it’s absolutely beautiful. We meet Wilbur, a gentle soul who boards the train to revisit key moments from his life. It’s full of love, loss, regret, reflection, and ultimately, finding peace.

We’ve got copies waiting for you to take home and begin your own midnight journey with Wilbur. đŸ„č🚂✹
