Literature discounts! Author appearances! A bookstore crawl!

To celebrate the national "Indies First" campaign, we're once again teaming up with other local, independent bookstores to offer an exciting day of promotions and activities. On Saturday morning, grab an "Indie Bookstore Passport" and visit one or more of six participating locations:

• Malaprop's Bookstore/Cafe
• The Captain's Bookshelf
• Downtown Books & News
• Firestorm Books & Coffee
• Spellbound Children's Bookshop

Each store will feature unique promotions and/or author events. At Firestorm, buy two or more books and you'll get a stackable 10% discount on your whole purchase.

Return your passport to Malaprop's and you'll be entered into a raffle with hundreds of dollars in bookstore prizes. The more stamps you collect on your passport, the larger the prizes! Last year more than 20% of participants won gift cards.
