Sure, Super Bowls are exciting. But have you ever finished a 1,336-page book about Robert Moses?

There are people in this world who read 200+ books a year and they, too, deserve to be Olympians.

Rediscovered a photo of one of the quotes on @literatibookstore.bsky.social’s wall: ‘when was the last time someone told you that you are enough?’

Due to weather, we’re closed all day today, Jan 25. Stay safe and perhaps read a great book like George Orwell’s 1984, which includes poignant and relevant quotes such as, “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

In 2016, I had the idea every year I’d take a photo of books on our tables, so over the years, I could see what we set out in the past. Since many people are posting 2016 pictures, if you had walked into Literati ten years ago, you would have seen these books.

Due to winter weather, we're closing early today (Jan 14) at 5pm! Thanks for understanding and stay safe out there!

That’s a wrap! There are a lot of books under those trees this year! We will be closed the 25th and 26th, so get some reading in, enjoy the winter quietude, and we will see you Saturday. Thank you to everyone who shopped not only with us this holiday season. Wishing you all safe and happy holidays!
