There are a lot good deals! Come back and let us know what you get!
Thanks for putting this list together, didn’t even know some of these places existed!
You are so welcome!
This is awesome. And dangerous.
We are happy to be enablers. ?
Me, too. I sometimes feel bad, but then not really. I need company in the “I buy too many books” club.
I might have to hit up my local HPB, but also I totally don’t need to buy more books…
Also, you guys didn’t include Storiarts, but they’re running a variety of sales this week for Black Friday (different sale every day I believe?). They do apparel/accessories/totes/etc printed with the text of a bunch of major literary works. Mostly classics, but a couple contemporary titles as well! (I can’t vouch for their quality, but I’ve had my eye on their stuff for a while and might have to finally give in and buy something from them ?
Great! Thanks for letting us know. We will add them to the list. - Haley
