Dear Reader,
After a long and windy winter I know I'm not the only one thrilled to see sunshine and bunny candy... Oh Happy Day.
Notably, tomorrow (April 1, 2013) marks the first anniversary of Nantucket Bookworks and Mitchell's Book Corner working together as a team. Yes indeed, we are Fools for Books and proud of it : )
We're thrilled to say that despite a challenging environment for bookselling, we grew sales at both locations last year, and we are excited to build on what we have begun. (To that end, we are expanding our team - see below for a link to job descriptions for two key positions. Please help us spread the word!)
In coming weeks you'll see more news from us, including a dedicated Nantucket Book Festival newsletter, an updated survey, and a fresh, friendly website overhaul.
Things are definitely hopping at the bookstores and we look forward to sharing it all with you.
Happy Blossoming! -Wendy H.

Wellness Series: Dr. Hinson April 3rd |
 |
Food vs Fad.
If you are what you eat, and you want to be healthy, then what should you eat? Seems like a simple question, but you would never know it looking at the conflicting advice in diet books and from the experts. Dr. Hinson will review popular diet plans and try to help you find your answer to this important question.
Join us Noon-1:00 pm upstairs at MBC

We are EXTREMELY Social, so Please Like Us |
 |
I love social media, many would say I love it too much. It's definitely the best way to get quick updates from the stores, so be sure to follow both stores on Facebook (Nantucket Bookworks and Mitchell's Book Corner) and Twitter, as well as Instagram and Pinterest. We'd also love it if you would check in on your favorite location-based app like Foursquare, Yelp, or our new up & coming favorite, MeeLocal. LIKE!
