Independent Bookstore Day, Chicagoland hosts biggest celebration yet

Choosing local when buying books is more than just where you shop: You’re protecting creativity. You’re defending the freedom to read. You’re uplifting diverse voices. You’re investing in neighbors. Today, and every day, we celebrate and support indie bookstores. Happy Independent Bookstore Day!

Don't forget that today is independent bookstore day! A great excuse to go pick up a new read. Also, be sure to ask if they carry books by local writers since it's also indie author month.

Happy Independent Bookstore Day! Your independent bookstores put their money back into their local economies at many times the rate of the chains or tech giants. Authors would be lost without them. Support your local indie today (and every day).

Hey! It’s Independent Bookstore Day! Did you know you can preorder books at independent bookstores, including MY BOOK?!?! GO ORDER SOMEONE’S BOOK

I don’t care whose book you buy today as long as you buy it from an independent bookstore and it’s not that asshole JEFF’S book. You fucking know what you did, JEFF. Fuck YOU. Anyway support independent bookstores on Independent Bookstore Day. Fuckin’ JEFF.

Happy Independent Bookstore Day! What a wonderful time to buy Woodworking by Emily St. James from your local indie, which you can do in person or here: bookshop.org/p/books/wood... The paperback is available for preorder! Buy one and leave it in a hotel room like a Gideon Bible!

Happy Independent Bookstore Day! I recently visited two independent bookstores in our district, Swallow Stories Bookshop and Noble Capybara Bookstore and Gift Shop. We’re fortunate to have local bookstores in our community that foster a lifelong love of reading.

OH HEY GUESS WHAT? It's Independent Bookstore Day and it's a fine day to go visit your favorite local store and pick up a book or three. And, y'know, while you're there you could also preorder THE OFF SEASON starting, like, now! (surprise cover reveal! Yeah, it was a surprise to me too)

Book picks up from my library’s book sale and for independent bookstore day 😄

Driving through Little Rock on Independent Bookstore Day, so: found one! Sammy’s Bookshelf. Great people, cool place. Super crowded, as of course every bookstore always should be

Do direct author shops count as independent bookstores? I feel like they should given a lot of folks don't have local physical indepdent stores but still want to shop outside corporations. So happy Independent Bookstore Day and here is mine where I have ebooks, audiobooks, and print available:

Happy Independent Bookstore Day! Today and every day, stick it to the oligarchs and shop from the small, human-scaled businesses that are a part of your community! As an author and a reader, I am so grateful for independent bookstores and the booksellers who make them what they are.

Happy Independent Bookstore Day to everyone who knows how to read!
