Happy Independents Week!  Celebrate your local independents this week -- whether they be in books, music, restaurants or what have you.  Hard to imagine what your community would look like without any independent retailers, isn't it?  Just imagine half the streets you usually drive down lined with vacant properties (a depressing thought, yes).  It's not unfathomable.  So, please, show your love.  Your hometown community -- wherever you are -- will appreciate it.  WE WILL BE OPEN ON SATURDAY, JULY 4th 10:00 a.m. -- 4:00 p.m. Stump the Bookseller  selection of the week a service to help identify the author and title of long lost childhood literary memories. M569: Mouse named Lady Greensleeves who solved mysteries The story involved a little mouse named Lady Greensleeves who, with her maid, solved problems or mysteries. My friend checked the book out of a library sometime around 1968-1970, and it was an older book back then. She doesn't remember the title or the author.  See More >   Gene Epstein: Pastels & Folded Books Annex Gallery Opening Reception Thursday, July 2, 6-8pm ~ first Thursdays ~ Gene Epstein is a familiar face here at Loganberry Books.  In addtion to occassional work at Strong Bindery, Gene is the leader of Gene's Jazz Hot, which plays here every second Thursday evening, and she's part of the Altered Book Group which has had several exhibitions in the Annex Gallery.  But she also works in watercolor, pastel, charcoal and paint, and this exhibit of her recent works features her pastels, as well as her signature folded books.  With a virtuoso power like this, you're sure to find something you like, so come check it out!

Show and Tell  Thursday, July 16, 7pm ~ third Thursdays ~ Wikipedia Definition: Show and tell is the process of showing an audience something and telling them about it, predominantly in North America. It is usually done in a classroom as an early elementary school technique for teaching young children the skills of public speaking. Usually, a child will bring an item from home and will explain to the class why they chose that particular item, where they got it, and other relevant information.  NOBS Definition:  Grown-ups have fun talking about their books!  $3 suggested donation. Austeniana Book Club Pride and Prejudice Thursday, July 23, 7pm ~ fourth Thursdays ~ We’re returning to the original works by Jane Austen now, after delving into sequels, inspirations and biographies.   I believe the first up is the biggie and most famous of them all:  Pride and Prejudice.  Praise the Unsung Book Club Elizabeth Boyd:  The Famished Land Thursday, July 23, 7pm ~ fourth Thursdays ~ Have you ever heard about the Irish potato famine of the mid-nineteenth century?  It's a stunning true story of great poverty, hunger, and the struggle to survive.  Many didn't.  In Elizabeth Byrd's novel, The Famished Land, we follow the lives of people who live in a small town in Ireland, who must learn to live on the bare bones of the earth, or find a way to set sail for distant lands.  Moira McFlaherty is our young narrator, ready to fall in love and get married, when suddenly, the green sprouts of potatoes turn brown and  the potatoes rot in the ground, turning poisonous.  Moira is a tough girl, and fights for her life and the lives of those she loves.  The Famished Land does what historical fiction should do: puts us into a time and place of interest, and into the shoes of characters who will live, and die, in a time long past.  But in this time and place, they didn't even have shoes.  It's well worth reading.
