It's that time of year, and we're all decked out in our holiday splendor and hoping you and yours are merry and well. Some of my favorite things in Otis' Old Curiosity Shop this year are little ceramic "bookworm" characters, DIY painting pendulums, Cleveland coasters, recycled metalworks sculptures, and snarky catnip pouches. We also have a ton of jigsaw puzzles and Jellycat plush, and every single one makes me smile. I hope it all brings a smile to your face, too. | Annual Open House + Perks Members-only sale!

This month's bookseller host: Sarah
Thursday, December 15, 7pm
~3rd Thursdays, in-store and virtual~
The Wall by Marlen Haushoffer, translated by Shaun Whiteside is a staff favorite here at Loganberry, and we are excited to talk about this beguiling and unforgettable book with you. The Wall is a dystopian survivalist page-turner for people who don't read dystopian fiction and people who love it. Bookseller Sarah says, "It’s about a woman who wakes up in the Austrian mountains to find an invisible wall has come down, cutting her off from the world. Written in 1963 and recently republished, it is still relevant and unforgettable." Join Sarah for the discussion in-store or register for the online meeting here.

It combines Jewish folklore with innovative storytelling in a delightful tale about the Yaga siblings and their sentient house on chicken legs, which will appeal to readers of Neil Gaiman, Kelly Link, Erin Morgenstern, and Susanna Clark.!" | Devon recommends The Book Thief by Markus Zuzak: "The Book Thief is an incredible story of the Holocaust told from the perspective of Death following one orphaned young reader, Liesel. Liesel is taken in by a German couple who later begin harboring a young Jewish man. We follow Liesel and her adoptive parent’s lives as they secretly fight against Nazi ideologies book by book. This is a book everyone should read, and then read again." | Bulk Order Discounts Does your church, synagogue, school, or company need to order 10 or more copies of a book for a group read or special event?
