Listen, we are all about joy over here: the joy of reading, the joy of community, and the joy of this genre that has our hearts.

Join us on Saturday, August 9 for Bookstore Romance Day, a national holiday (started by a bookseller!) that celebrates Romance books, its authors, and its readers.

In the bookshop, we will have...

• Romance displays and staff picks. Our booksellers are excited to share personalized recommendations and hand flail over favorites!

• New stickers from some of our favorite vendors

• Blind Date with a Book (free mystery ARCs!)

• Our heart-shaped sticky note tradition: guide others to their next great read by placing a heart-shaped sticky note on your favorite books on our shelves!

• A one-day only 15% off Pre-Order Special on select titles that we are anticipating!

• An Instagram contest! If you take a photo at the bookshop on Bookstore Romance Day, post on Instagram and tag us @bluewillowbooks, and you will be entered for a chance to win a swag bag.

P.S. If you want to finish your visit with something sweet, stop by our neighbors at Chez Kobayashi Pastries. In addition to beautiful pastries, they also serve croissants, crepes, quiche, coffee, and more! Find them just a few doors down in our shopping center.
