Books to Read With the Lights On

Join us during Treasures at the Town Center for a free celebration of local author Alex Ebenstein and his spooky middle grade and adult horror works. Alex, also writing as A.J. Stein, will have make-or-take spooky crafts for kids, tweens, and grown-up horror fans so you can either make something creepy with us in the shop or grab a kit and instructions to take home for when you're ready to unleash your inner craft goblin.

We believe in rewarding people for doing things they were probably going to do anyway (like reading spooky books during October) so there will also be chances to enter Alex's drawing for a Bookshop.org gift card. There are several ways to enter: complete the bookshop scavenger hunt, purchase a book from Alex, or leave an online review of one of his previous works you've already read.

The event is free, and you don't need to be…
