Friends of the Library Bookstore

With St. Patrick’s Day and Easter around the corner, there’s still time to peruse the Friends of the Library boutique tables. The boutique has a number of charming items for dining tables or for grandkid’s Easter baskets, including lots of small bunnies urgently in need of children to cuddle them.

And there are holiday cards for grown-ups, close or distant, who appreciate being remembered.

March is also Women’s History month and the bookstore has a wide range of books about women and books written by women, both classics and newer books. Whether you’ve been meaning to get around to reading Jane Austen, the Bronte Sister, Elizabeth Wharton, JD Robb or Janet Evanovich mysteries, Louise Penny or the grand mistress Agatha Christie, the library has plenty to choose from. If romance is on your mind, check out our large collection of Harlequin stories.

The Bookstore doesn’t usually take large items, but a folding table, sturdy, 7’x30” is needed. Call Joyce Brannon, 562-480-3700, if you have one to donate.
