We also carry Modern Literature, Fiction, Children's & Illustrated Books, Americana, and Rare Books in a variety of fields.

    So we are up and running, thanks again Sandra for the gentle reminder to join in the fray. Has been rather pleasant to wake up with a cup of java this am and see all the kind friend requests. (Never have been so popular before in our life, well perhaps a few bar settings might have come close but only when we were buying!) Looking forward to posting real comments in the future as we get our crimespace "legs" under us! Best, Michelle

    I will be at Bouchercon 2007 in Anchorage Ak. I used to live up there 81-91. My big adventure. It would be great to see friendly cyberspace buddies there.

    It will be our first visit so pretty excited about it. Figure we might want to see it BEFORE it melts away.....well not really but you know what we mean. Any suggestions on a great seafood place to dine? -Michelle

    I'm so sorry to hear about your lab. It's really hard to know that animal friends are with us for such a short time.

    What a wonderful sounding bookstore. Sorry to hear about your dog--I know how hard that can be.
