spooky storytime with Bookseller Lou Smith Join Bookseller Lou Smith for an afternoon of spooky stories from the master of the macabre himself, Edgar Allan Poe. Lou will read aloud some Poe classics, leaving time in between for discussions of the texts - it’s like a book club, except you don’t need to read anything in advance! Whether you are a Poe scholar or coming in blind, this will be a fun filled Halloween book event, without being too scary. Registration is free for paid store members and $5 for non-members and Followers. We'll also have drink specials at the minibar! (No outside beverages please).
