In the meantime, we are working on an exciting list of virtual events for both adults and children and we look forward to exploring this new format with you.Sales equate success, and as with in-store events, booksales made from an independent bookstore benefit the author, publisher, and lead to future event bookings. Please help us keep the Bay Area the wonderful literary hub that it is by supporting your local Books Inc." } ] } ] ```
