Do you like to thumb through
books when you’re deciding what to read next?
Amazon is great when I know
what I want, BUT sometimes I like to peruse lots of books, especially when I'm looking for something different. Then I go to one of my two favorite bookstores.
Under Charlie’s Covers (primarily a used book store)
505-404-2097
505-404-2097
160 S. Camino Del Pueblo
Suite B
Bernalillo, NM 87004
Treasure House (features New Mexico authors)
505-242-7204
505-242-7204
2012 S Plaza St. NW (on the
square in Old Town Albuquerque)
Albuquerque, NM 87104
If you live in the
Albuquerque area, I recommend these two. If you live elsewhere, take time to
visit bookstores in your area and develop favorites. Sometimes, used bookstores
are the best choice; other times bookstores, which focus on local authors, are
great.
I’ll be doing a book signing
for The Good Old Days? A Collection of Stories on Sunday, Dec 10 from 12:30-3. It's a great Christmas gift with bits of nostalgia and reality about the past intermixed.
My mysteries ad thrillers are already at Treasure House.
