💓 HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! 💓
We acknowledge we are on the traditional land of the Abenaki people.

Dear Readers,

Happy Valentine's Day!

As we inch out of winter, the days grow longer and brighter, inspiring us to come out of hibernation and seek new books to revitalize our senses. This month we have curated books on the theme of Opposites Attract. We hope to help you discover new authors and genres you will love--especially if you are in a reading slump. Check out our favorites in the Romance genre and then explore a genre below that is the opposite. Have fun browsing, and stay tuned for our Black History Month newsletter!

Are you eager to see flowers in bloom again? Phoenix Books will be exhibiting at the 2023 Vermont Flower Show on March 3–5 at the Champlain Valley Expo in Essex Junction. This year's Grand Garden Display theme will be Out of Hibernation. There will be over 100 vendors and 35+ educational seminars with hands-on workshops featuring a variety of topics. Find tickets HERE!

Stay until the end to discover the fun of our recent events. January was an action-packed month for us!

PS: Readers, the bottom half of our newsletter sometimes gets clipped in emails. Upon being prompted to open the entire message, you will have access to the full newsletter without missing anything.

(DON'T WORRY THERE ARE MORE EVENTS TO COME!)
Thank you to everyone who joined us at our Burlington location for a day of fantasy to meet Tricia Levenseller and Vermont author Laurie Forest! The authors had a blast signing books, answering questions, and interacting with their fans (and we did too)! Find Tricia's books HERE and Laurie's books HERE.
Award-winning Vermont author, Kekla Magoon visited our Essex location to celebrate the launch of her book The Minus-One Club! While in store, we had cake, looked at (and smelled) beautiful flowers, and enjoyed fascinating conversation. Peruse all of Kekla's young adult and middle grade books HERE.
Over at our Rutland location, we had the pleasure of hosting Ren Hurst to celebrate the launch of her new book, The Wisdom of Wildness. We had a great time and good conversation! You can find her book HERE. Thank you for visiting, Ren!
We had a great time at Champlain College in Burlington for the book launch of Hanging Out by associate professor Sheila Liming! Sheila was in conversation with Dr. Amy Schiller of Dartmouth College. Check out her book HERE!
