Independent Bookstore Day April 30 at Snowbound Books

Join us Saturday, April 30th from 10am to 6pm at Snowbound Books (118 North 3rd Street, Marquette, MI) as we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day.

Over 400 bookstores across the nation celebrated independence from the Amazons and Big Boxes of the world last year.  Now it’s time to do it again.  This annual event is our opportunity to say thank you to everyone who doesn’t just keep us surviving, but thriving.  We’re beyond grateful for all of you, and we want to see your beautiful faces on a (hopefully) beautiful day.

This year, to commemorate our late friend and author Jim Harrison, we’ll be locking the door promptly at 6pm to celebrate his life in a toast.  We know many of you have stories of him and this toast is for us to cheer his prolific and intrepid life in a way he would appreciate.

Why put indies first?  We provide something we’re positive you can’t get online and we consider you all our friends.  We want you to leave with the best book for you, because we’re happy to see you.

    Hello Victor, Independent Bookstore Day is something to celebrate indeed. But we will be in The Dells unfortunately, and fortunately. I wish all involved a happy Independent Bookstore Day.
