We're showing of our #fridayreads in our new book selfie mirror! See if you can find it, take a selfie with your book friends (real friends are okay too) and tag us!
Josh is spending this #FridayReads (last week) far away from the store, but we won't hold it against him. He reports that the romance in the fittingly titled Here Comes the Sun is wonderful, and he "feels everything for them." Celebrating love feels like a great way to spend pride month! ?☀??
The international edition of Mary Berry's baking book has arrived! Pick it up after binging every available season to make sure you have no soggy bottoms, the best dough balls and warm buns, and only perfect layers.

Lucas is so speedy that it was near-impossible to track him down for #fridayreads but I finally stopped him long enough to find out he's reading Eating Korea. He says it's great to read something so devoted to his culture, even its most dramatic and bizarre elements-- author Graham Holliday has eaten some foods that even Lucas has never heard of! 🍴📚
A peaceful sight: the bookstore after hours. Goodnight, books. Goodnight, moon. Goodnight, Upper West Side! #thisismybookstore #bookculture #indiethursday

This week for #fridayreads Estefanía shares her current read: Traveling With Ghosts by Shannon Leone Fowler
•
"A brilliant story of grief and discovery. I love it because I feel like the author is being really honest about her feelings through this abstract memoir. She does an excellent job of putting feelings into words. A really honest read-- it feels like I'm reading into her soul." #tbr #currentlyreading #staffpicks
In case you've seen some sneak peeks or trailers for some of these titles, just remember the book is better! (Ps: not all of these titles are ~officially~ going to be movies/ tv series but we have caught wind that they are in the works!)

Before, we gave you some good ugly cry books. Just in case crying isn't your thing and you've decided to pretend that the predicted foot of snow actually fell, here's our favorite feel-good reads!
#stella #happyreads #staffpicks #snowday
All of our stores were closed yesterday for #Stella, but that just means our staff has extra time to brush up on their book recommendations!
#snowday #reading #booksellers #cozy
So you heard about that blizzard coming on Tuesday? Well, we picked some really sad books for you because there's nothing better than ugly crying at home with a hot beverage and a raging blizzard outside!

Nearly matching outfits but matching #fridayreads. When we asked them how it was going they both simply screamed. #endoftheseriesproblems
Hygge (Pronounced hoo-ga) is all about living a cosy and warm life. Want to wear your heavy wool sweater? It's in here. Lighting candles? It's not Hygge without them. Want or have a shelf full of books? Also Hygge!
Small but mighty! Small presses are key to the success of small bookstores like us. Come celebrate these publishing warriors with us during Small Press Month!
Welcome to #fridayreads with Book Culture Columbus!! Olivia is reading "Pilgrim at Tinker Creek" and LOVING it: "it's changing my life. Annie Dillard is a goddess. It demands to be read slowly because every sentence is such a gem." ??? #bookculture #bookculturecolumbus
Continuing our big romance push!
New year, new section homes! Meet the new Mind section

"A beautiful cookbook from the acclaimed Chef of North Carolina as well as a big book of wonderful essays as the book is sorted by ingredient and each is introduced with a story of that ingredient and Howard's life. The true tale of Southern food: rooted in family and tradition, yet calling out to the rest of the world. I hope you can appreciate this cookbook and story book as much as I do." - @jslosh
A country mansion, an acquitted murderess, her uncle, her sister, and townsfolk who hate them all: these are the ingredients for Jackson's classic tale of isolation and deception. It will leave you wondering who the real villains are. ☠️ --Devon
It's #recommendsday again! (How did that happen?)
Today, our recommendation comes from @JessReads at Book Culture on Broadway -
"All of the praise that SHRILL has gained isn't enough. West is unashamedly feminist, body positive, and self-aware. When she isn't being laugh-out-loud hilarious, she's being honest and sharply observant about the place of the modern woman. I loved this collection of essays!"
"COVER THE WHOLE TABLE IN THE RAVEN CYCLE!" - @jslosh currently sold out of Blue Lily, Lily Blue)
For #recommendsday, we have a whole section of recommendations for STRANGER THINGS fans! What are you reading now that you're finished bingeing the show?
