The Learned Owl Book Shop, September 1, 2016
Kate's Corner

Happy September! Looks like we made it through a scorcher of a summer and we are headed toward a beautiful fall. This also marks the beginning of the fall release season. So many fantastic books coming out I can't even begin to list them. Be sure you are receiving our mid-month newsletters in your favorite categories to keep up to date.

Construction is moving along, and they are doing their best to keep everything as normal as possible during the day. The new water line is in, and they are in the process of hooking it up to each business. On-street parking is still open all the way down Main Street during business hours. Looks like the schedule for the fall may be changing. We will keep you updated as changes are confirmed.

Thank you for your support, and happy reading!
