This Saturday! Celebrate romance fiction—its books, readers, and writers—at Next Chapter Books from 10 am to 5 pm!

We'll have a brand-new offering of
Blind Date With a Book for you to choose from, plus take 20% off romance & romantasy novels, both new and gently used. (designated in-store.)

So whether it's a Kennedy Ryan you haven't read yet, or you want to catch up on the A Court of Thorns and Roses series before number 6 & 7 drop this Fall/ Winter, or you'd like to take a surprise read along with you on one of summer's last beach days, we've got you covered.

Plus, pamper yourself with handmade soap, a book-themed candle, or a special wine glass to pair with that romantic read!

Are you trying to find your way in our current and ever-changing climate? Wondering if it's possible to navigate the feelings of overwhelm, grief, and outrage and somehow transform them into power, joy, and meaning?

Let's find out.

Whether you're a long-timer or newly curious about a climate journey, we welcome you to explore with us Dr. Wilkinson's heart-forward approach to navigating life on this planet, and in our community, "where we can be with wounds and a part of mending them"

and where we might find "a newfound sense of clarity, courage, connection, and contribution."

Next Chapter Books will host three intimate conversations this fall, led by Detroit climate justice activists Martha Cavazos, our EEV neighbor, and jøn kent, co-founder of Sanctuary Farms

We welcome you to join us for one, two, or all evenings. Each conversation, facilitated by Martha, jøn, or both, will be inspired by a couple of chapters from Wilkinson's gentle yet groundbreaking book.

August 27 - starting your climate justice journey & navigating emotions

September 30 - surfacing solutions

October 29 - orienting with vision & community.

We hope you'll join us! Books are available for sale at the bookstore.
