Love & Other Books! Our Indie Bookstore Neighbor!
Sunday Apr 12, 2026
Sunday Apr 12, 2026
Erin Cambron, co-owner/manager of LOVE & OTHER BOOKS, joins us to talk about her store as it nears its two year anniversary. Cambron talks to us about curating a charming, cozy vibe, and a culture, too, as a combination of romance novels and children's books, but also serving as an events space, particularly for book clubs and storytimes.
April 25 is Indie Bookstore Day, so that's an excellent time to visit the store (if you haven't already). But ALSO, Erin talks to us about bigger plans down the line, looking ahead to the Banned Together Book Fest on October 10. https://bannedtogetherbookfest.com/
