| Free On-Island Delivery This Week |
 |
|
I've been wanting to try this for a while... free
deliveries on Nantucket. If you know what you need
and your purchases add up to $50 or more,
we'll arrange to deliver them to you. Remember, gift
cards can add to your total quite quickly!
This offer will go for a limited time while we see if it
makes sense. We'll start with December 8th
through the 15th.
Call us at 508-228-4000 to make arrangements.

| Gift Cards |
|
|
Everyone knows what a great feeling it is to have a
gift card or three in your wallet. Available in any
amount over $10, they make perfect presents for
teachers, teenagers, and everyone else on your list.
Gift cards can be mailed anywhere, and they can be
used at any participating independent bookstore with
Booksense.
For best service with gift cards or any other
order, please call us at 508-228-4000.

| Jeanne's Nantucket Mermaid Calendar |
|
|
Jeanne Van Etten is an incredibly talented freelance
artist and illustrator. She also happens to moonlight
at Bookworks, and has produced a limited edition
calendar for 2007 which we're proud to offer for sale.
These calendars were a huge hit this past weekend
during Stroll, and they are going fast. Call soon if
you'd like us to reserve one for you. They are a bit
smaller than the average wall calendar, feature black
and
white line art throughout, and retail for $15.00

| Thank you to the NHA |
|
|
Bookworks was honored this year to get to do a
really big tree for the Festival of Trees at the
Whaling Museum. Filled with undersea magnificence
and wise quotes from the briny deep, I think it might
be our magnum opus. Just had to share...
There's still time to catch the fest
and support the NHA:December 1-18:
Whaling Museum.
Thurs - Mon, 11 A.M. - 4 P.M.;
Friday, 11 A.M. - 8 P.M.

| New Rechargeable Booklight from LightWedge/GPL |
|
|
There are so many new products out this year from
our friends at LightWedge/ Great Point Light that if I
listed them all you wouldn't believe it.
My favorite is the ReLight rechargeable
book light, with 4 LEDs and 30 hours of power on a
single charge. I'm the type of person that avoids
anything with a battery because I hate leaving them
at the dump, so this is
perfect. Well worth the price at $34.95
Hard to believe such a thing hasn't been on
the market before, but there it is. Thank you Jamey &
Debbie Bennett, and the Nantucket-based Inc. 500
team.

| Unique Necklace for a Good Cause |
|
|
Here's a truly cool gift: a necklace handcrafted--
rivets and all--from sterling silver and a Cisco
bottlecap. (The logo is turned to stress the life
aquatic.) The silver chain is 16". Sure to be a hit.
Proceeds will benefit the local business efforts
of Sustainable Nantucket. To order, please email
Wendy Hudson at wsmhudson@comcast.net or call
508-364-0903 with your request.

$65.00
