This weekend is a good time to visit your local bookstore, as this Saturday is Independent Bookstore Day.

What is Independent Bookstore Day?

It’s a one-day celebration that takes place on the last Saturday in April at indie bookstores across the country. In addition to meeting authors, live music, kids’ events, contests, and other fun stuff, participating bookstores will have exclusive books and literary items for sale only available on that day.  To learn more about Independent Bookstore Day, visit their website.
