Fall ...... Into a Good Book!
+++++++++++++++++++++
2020 has been and will continue to be a challenging year!! For the publishing industry it has been a topsy-turvy year of changing release dates and a quick shift to online everything (conferences, sales visits and author and publishing events). With an election year focus on politics AND the pandemic it has been quite difficult to predict book sales.

The publishing industry is also weathering some significant challenges to its printing pipeline. And the inability to predict deliveries and shipments are impeded by the retail industry shift to online shopping and home delivery.

We try to anticipate your book interests and the number of copies but as there are so many variables unfortunately mis-calculations can happen!

Our guidance: SHOP as SOON as you can to avoid being disappointed and unable to get your book gifts due to shortages or delays.
Fall is a great time for book buying and reading.
Commonplace Reader supports all readers.
A: PRINT : Books are available for pick up, home delivery, browsing online and in the store.
B: AUDIO Books : We work with Libro.fm for audio books.
C: EBOOKS : We have an arrangement with hummingbird for ebooks.

See our website for more information.
