"Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint." —Mark Twain
Before
the summer became too crazy, the Island Books team gathered for a staff
barbeque. Here we are, soaking up the Mercer Island sun. Life is good
at Island Books these days, and that's thanks to our customers, who
continue to support their local independent bookstore. We're fortunate
and we know it.
August
is the last month to get in some summer reading before school starts
and the demands of fall return. Stop by and see us while everyone is
still wearing sandals and flip-flops.
Yours, COUNTER INTELLIGENCE
