Thank you to Richmond & Midlothian area book lovers and new faces, longtime customers, and returning friends, for making Indie Bookstore Day and the Greater RVA Indie Bookstore Tour such an incredible success 💓

It was amazing seeing so many people take advantage of the crawl to come visit our small-but-mighty store in Sycamore Square in Midlothian. We had more people complete the tour than ever before. More importantly, we hope we shared some great books with you and conversation and connection as well. We truly have such an awesome book community.

Being part of the indie bookstore scene here brings me so much joy. I am grateful to be part of a flourishing ecosystem of booksellers, readers, and inclusive community spaces, and we appreciate every person who continues to shop local and support small businesses.

Congratulations to our Grand Prize winner, Bow S., who won $550 worth of gift certificates to participating stores!

I can’t wait to see y’all back in the shop and around the Richmond and Midlothian book scene this summer.

Shoutout to fellow tour stops:
