The following stores are places I’ve visited for readings and signings or they are stores owned and managed by wonderful people whom I’ve met at conferences or on the road.
I appreciate the convenience of Amazon and I love to sip coffee surrounded by books in a Barnes and Noble or Borders, but I suggest if you have one of these independent stores in your area, you wander in and spend some time talking with people who love and live books.
The Amazon links are provided on the book pages as a convenience, but I hope for those of you who prefer a different method of commerce, you’ll get to know these havens for readers and mystery lovers. Many of the bookstores have newsletters and special offers that you can receive via email. If you have a favorite bookshop and you don’t see it listed here, or if there are any booksellers visiting this site and you don’t see your store here, please contact me and your store will be added.
