Love is in the air! (And you thought it was pollen.) We are gearing up for our annual celebration of all things bookish and romantic on Saturday, August 17: BOOKSTORE ROMANCE DAY!! We have a ton of things for you to look forward to, including:
Everyone who buys a romance novel will have a chance to win a Skylark gift card!
Throughout the day we will be hiding "Golden Tickets" in and around the romance sections and displays. Find one, and you get to choose a free book, courtesy of our friends at St. Martins Press!
There will be free friendship bracelets while stocks last! If you have some of your own, you’re welcome to bring them and trade!
On the mezzanine floor there will be a "make your own romance cover" station throughout the day. Time to get creative and have some fun!
We will also be selling some excellent bundles of romance books and (appropriately enough) featuring romance titles in our famous “blind date with a book” series (all of which will be available at half price.)
Representatives from Skylark’s most raucous book club, The New Romantics, will be hanging out in the store at various points in the day to talk about the club and how much fun it is. If you’ve never attended a book club before, this is your chance to meet some folks ahead of time and learn more about it.
We’ll also be reading love poems throughout the day!
In addition we’ll have other games, events, and more fun things that we haven’t even thought of yet. No need to register - just come along and join in the party!
