“A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies…the man who never reads lives only one.” R.R.Martin
September 2022 Edition of the Newsflash
The month of September is all about change…the length of days change, routines change, the colors change, and often so do our moods. And what better way to channel our mood or change our attitude than to find a great book, movie, or music CD to take home! Visit the friendly confines at Books Around the Corner where we offer a plethora of genres and picks. Bring daring adventure, suspense, and head-spinning romance into your life with books from the following Authors of the Month:
All books from the following authors are half-price in September:
- Dean Koontz! This popular, highly successful American author is usually billed as a suspense writer, but he often incorporates
- elements of horror, fantasy and offbeat satire in his works.
- Iris Johansen! Brilliant author of crime fiction, Johansen is #1 NY Times bestselling writer of countless romance, suspense, and thrillers.
- John Grisham! Acknowledged Master of the legal thriller, Grisham has authored over 47 consecutive #1 bestsellers,
- which have been translated into nearly 50 languages.
- Nora Roberts! Prolific American author of more than 225 romance novels, Roberts also writes under the pseudonyms
- J .D. Robb, Jill March and, in the U.K., as Sarah Hardesty.
We can’t wait to see you in our bookshop where you can beat the September Sad’s and find awesome mood-changing perks all year round!
Please note that in honor of Labor Day the bookstore will be closed Monday, September 5th.
COVID concerns continue in our community despite decreasing numbers of deaths and hospitalizations. Whereas we respect Maricopa County’s decision to drop the mask mandate, because of the bookstore’s small space, we strongly encourage volunteers and members of the public
to wear a mask when in the bookstore.
