Another Page, Another Day: Weekly Stories From Around the Corner Paperbacks

Looking for the latest trends in the local and national literary world? Check out my weekly blog!

Hello friends! In this weekly blog, I will be discussing a number of interesting topics involving the literary world. From what is the perfect summer “pool side book” to read, to what the local high schools are assigning their students to read over the summer break.

I will also be discussing the importance of supporting your local independent bookstores in the area. I would greatly appreciate feedback from the community to what they are reading currently. I love to discuss books!!!

Around the Corner Paperbacks is proud to announce that we have recently joined forces with the St. Louis Independent Bookstore Alliance. The Alliance's mission statement is as follows : "The mission of the St. Louis Independent Bookstore Alliance is to provide St. Louis with a wide variety of independent bookstores, each specializing in their own passion for books, staffed by expert booksellers and stocked with the most amazing books; to support the creative and literary efforts in our city; to share our love of knowledge and storytelling; to not only keep up with the times, but to stay ahead of the curve so that our customers get the best service, the best events, and books that fill their souls. It advocates in a variety of ways on issues that affect independent bookstores. For more information regarding the Alliance check this web link www.stlindiebook.com/
