Dear Readers,

Happy Friday. 2021 is proving to be, well, historic to say the least. Before we get too far ahead of ourselves, we want to say *thank you.* We are so grateful for the tremendous support you showed us during the 2020 holiday season. In the coming winter months we will continue to offer in-town (Darien and Rowayton) delivery, back door pickup, and our website is open 24/7. Our doors also remain open for browsing.

Read on for links to several upcoming events, many in partnership with local organizations and businesses, and a bumper crop of brand-new books. The week got away from us so Friday Five will return in two weeks time.

As always, if you want to connect in between, you know the drill: Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. We share what's new in-store, recommendations, and up-to-date event information on the daily.

See you soon.

PS: look out for a SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT on Monday; we're partnering with The Darien Foundation and The Corbin District to bring you some exciting news about Corbin Cares. Stay tuned.
