Salutations!
While the leaves fall and the air grows a tad chilly,
we have some specials to warm you up! First, there’s our Friday the 13th special: 10% off all mysteries. (This happens
every Friday the 13th—but there’s not all that many of them in a
year, so don’t wait, come this time!) And, because it’s our 15th Anniversary this month,
books will be 15% off on Friday and Saturday
the 20th and 21st. There will be
gifties, perks, munchies and raffles in addition to discount, so come celebrate
with us. And you know (don’t you?) that the weekend after that is the
annual Larchmere Holiday Stroll
(details below), and we’re already getting ready.

Lauren Pacini: Extended Dynamic Range: Beauty in Black and White
November 5 - 30
The exhibit
includes selected pieces from three of the photographer’s series – Guardians of
Our Heritage, Across the Water, and Trees: Up Close and Personal. All of the
work strives to capture what is seen by the eye – not by the camera. Lauren is
a long-time resident of Shaker Heights; best known for his nature photography.
Although the show opened last week, you still have a chance to see it through
November 30.

We had a swinging good time last month with the
release of Gene's Jazz Hot's second CD,
Live, Love, Laugh and Be Happy: Live at Loganberry Books. But
don't worry if you missed it, because the band plays every second Thursday here
at Loganberry, and they always sound good. Besides, we have their CD
available for sale.
Friday the 13th Special
It only happens a couple times per year: Friday the
Thirteenth. Sounds like a good excuse for a sale on mysteries, don’t you
think? So be it! November is such a special month, so join us on
Friday the 13th for 10% off all mysteries!
