Spring is really, finally here.  I’m sure of it.  And the store is wearing its spring freshness with lots of brand new book titles and gorgeous gifts.  Check out our new “kitchen table” and our growing collection of Boston area themed gift items.  We even have a lovely tree dressed in vivid yarns on our block.  From it, I’ve learned of yarn bombing about which we have, of course, a cool book.  I hope to see you soon!

Happy New Year! Time to cleanse body and soul.  I know, I know; many titles such as this one are a bit bogus.  Conscious Cleanse is the real deal for a new way of thinking and eating.

"What do we owe each other?" Nealon convinces us that nurses, whose daily lives are steeped in both suffering and compassion, are in a unique position to ask such questions. Wonderful writing by medical professionals is almost a mini-genre. Add this title.

Not a completely original premise but a very interesting assortment. A nice reads as New Year's resolutions are mulled.
