Have some holiday fun! Join us Monday, December 4 for a special holiday edition of Booksmith and Alembic after dark.

From 4 to 9pm, we'll be slinging books and opening the secret passage from Alembic to the shop. Swing through for a drink or four, catch some live music, get some gifts crossed off your list and wrapped early, and luxuriate in a few extra hours of bookish bliss. We'll have holiday movies running on the projector, Alembic's genius refreshments, expert book recommendations for everyone you know (and you) (see above), free gift wrapping, time to mingle, did we mention drinks? Oh, and a Charlie Brown tree. We can't wait to see you there.

This is a free event, open to everyone of all ages. RSVP is not required, but everyone who registers in advance will be entered into a raffle – the winner gets a bag of sexy new books, chosen by us for you! Must be present to win.

Booksmith on Ice is sponsored by our friends at Quiet Lightning.
