Special Orders

We specialize in special orders. In our small shop, it’s always a challenge to find room for all the new, notable, and exciting books. So, if you’d like a book that we don’t have on hand, we are always happy to order it for you. We place orders almost daily and the usual turnaround time for a special order is one or two business days. For some books it may take longer, but we’ll be sure to discuss the particulars with you before we place an order. Additionally, we can ship books to you anywhere within the United States via UPS Ground. Give us a call, send us an email, or stop in any time.

Book-a-Month Club
This is a great gift for birthdays, anniversaries, special occasions, or for yourself—just because! You tell us what you or your friend, loved one, neighbor, mailman, etc. likes to read, and we ship that person a hand-selected title at the beginning of each month.

Gift Certificates
We also offer gift certificates, which you may purchase in any amount.
