April 24th - Canadian Independent Bookstore Day!

Although it will not look like it has in the past, we are pleased to at least be able to be open to celebrate this annual event! Watch out for some updates on our social media in the week leading up to get some previews of what we will be doing to safely celebrate!

We can share that each book purchased (in-store and online) will be eligible as an entry in a national contest administered by the Canadian Independent Booksellers Association! You can find out more at their website, cibabooks.ca.

“So Many Windings” Virtual Launch & Signing
We are thrilled to be launching the new book by Catherine MacDonald "So Many Windings". The virtual event will take place on Thursday May 27th, with a weather and COVID permitting signing taking place outside on the afternoon of Sunday May 30th. The sign up link is on the store’s webpage. Also, thanks to the generosity of the publisher At Bay Press, we have early copies! That means you can get them (unsigned), now before the actual launch!

Welcome, Avi!

As you already have probably noticed (and the lateness of this newsletter reflects), April has been a little hectic around Whodunit?. One of the reasons why has been our quest to add another person to our staff. After many great candidates, and a rigorous multi-stage process, we are pleased to be welcoming Aviva (Avi) Jacob to the bookshop. As always, we hope that you will be patient with her as she gets settled in. We are excited to see some of the new kinds of services and opportunities that Avi's presence will allow!
