From the bookseller's desk
Handwritten notes from the people who actually read them.
James
— Margaret, owner
by Percival Everett
"Everett takes the great American novel, turns it inside-out, and hands it back to us better than we left it. The single best book I've read all year — and I read a lot."
The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store
— Daniel, bookseller
by James McBride
"A novel that feels like a town. McBride writes communities like nobody else working today, and this one stayed with me long after the last page."
Knife
— Ruth, bookseller
by Salman Rushdie
"Spare, fierce, and unexpectedly tender. A meditation on language, love, and what it means to keep writing."
The Bee Sting
— Margaret, owner
by Paul Murray
"Six hundred pages and I wanted six hundred more. Funny and heartbreaking in the same sentence — sometimes the same word."
