Used Books at BookStacks: ReStacks!
Last October we launched a new and exciting program for you to bring in your gently read books for store credit. Well. We were overwhelmed with a ton of books coming in, and just a little underwhelmed with their subsequent sales. I made a Command Decision this week and moved all the hardcovers from the ReStacks shelves and changed them over to Reamainders, for the Bargain Book table at the front of the store, with much lower prices than before. This made a lot of space for more books, paperbacks, both mass market and trade size, on the ReStacks shelves, which is to say---I'm open to buy again.

Bring in a bag or a box of your books (paperbacks only, please), and we'll give you a receipt for the lot; within a week I'll get back to you with what I've decided to keep, and issue you a store credit for 20% of their cover price. The books then go on the ReStacks shelves at 50% of their cover price.

June Pick: Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
Celebrating literature, love, and the power of the human spirit, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society is the story of an English author living in the shadow of World War II—and embarking on a writing project that will dramatically change her life. Unfolding in a series of letters, this enchanting novel introduces readers to the indomitable Juliet Ashton. Through Juliet’s correspondence with her publisher, best friend, and an absorbing cast of characters, readers discover that despite the personal losses she suffered in the Blitz, and author tours sometimes marked by mishaps, nothing can quell her enthusiasm for the written word.
