Hey folks, we've been a little busy, so a quick email to catch you up on River Bend news!

Thanks for all the well wishes on our new home in Glastonbury — it's a little more elbow room for browsing and we've brought all the book magic with us. Our bigger and better space is nestled right in the heart of town center at 2400 Main Street, just across from the library and fountain.

If you have yet to stop by the new shop, come on in and visit us on your next stop into town. Elsa and the team are all ready to help!

We've got some Fall fun ahead! While you're popping in for the newest Wimpy Kid, check out some details below for storytime, costume party, stuffy sleepover, a new book launch and more!

Take a gander at what your neighbors are reading in River Bend Top Sellers and pick up a choice selection of bookseller faves with our monthly Staff Picks!
