Book Revue’s commitment to the community extends well beyond what most bookstores do: we host programs for aspiring writers just like Alice Osborn’s poetry workshop. In addition to these programs, our ongoing schedule of distinguished author readings and celebrity appearances has become known as one of the finest in America, and we are pleased to be able to offer these events to our customers on a regular basis.
