Mark your calendars and fluff up your tote bags — we’re throwing a book-loving bash on Saturday, April 26th in honor of Independent Bookstore Day, and you’re invited!
To celebrate all things indie and literary, we’ll be donating a portion of the day’s sales to the Montana Bookstore Trail, a fantastic initiative that supports local bookshops across our beautiful state. So yes — shopping for books absolutely counts as a good deed. 💚
But wait, there’s more! Join us for a very special evening event at 6:00 PM at our Bozeman store (511 W. Mendenhall), where the wonderful Jack Jelinski will be gracing us with his presence, prose, and probably a few laughs.
Come for the community, stay for the books, and leave with a heart (and book bag) full. We’d love to see your smiling faces — and hey, bring a friend, a neighbor, or that one cousin who always smells like old books.
With bookish love,
The Isle of Books Team
