Bookstore Romance Day is August 19!
/
Love is in the air!
Anyone who has been into the shop in recent months will know that we love us some good romance. Our “comfort food” section is packed tighter than a duchess’s heaving bodice. So we’re VERY excited that Saturday, August 19 is Bookstore Romance Day! We’re looking forward to celebrating all things romance with you! Bookstores across the country will be celebrating with us!
Too often the romance genre is looked down upon or dismissed as not “real” reading (whatever that means). This is, of course, very silly. We at Skylark (all being hopeless romantics ourselves) believe that Romance - with a capital R - is for everyone! There will be lots of fun things going on throughout the day, including:
Photo/selfie opportunities
Favorite Trope contest - the winning trope gets a Skylark staff curated list of book suggestions that fall under the category
Raffle - all you need to do to be entered in is buy a romance book through Skylark on August 19
You can also expect other fun surprises throughout the day, and (if we know anything about anything) some specially curated music which captures the spirit of the day.
NB: if two single people both come to Skylark on Bookstore Romance Day, meet, and fall in love, WE ALL WANT TO COME TO THE WEDDING. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
