Are you a Bibliophile? Have you developed the love of all things books? You need to know that April 27^th is celebrated as National Independent Bookstore Day. This day is a booklovers jamboree.

Support your local independent bookstore by stopping by especially on April 27^th, you may be in for a treat. Some stores celebrate with kids’ events, readings, local author visits and plenty of fun.

Why should you celebrate independent bookstores? The indie books website says that indie bookstores are “community centers run by passionate readers.” These stores are “universes of ideas.” Check out more about the celebration of Independent Bookstore Day by clicking here.
