Alma Alexander wrote in to tell us about Village Books in Fairhaven, Bellingham, Washington:
“It’s a big and wonderful indie bookstore which has a lot of cool stuff, comfy armchairs scattered around the place for laid-back browsing, and lots of author events scheduled in their reading gallery.
This photo is one of me at one of my own readings there — I’ve had at least four over the last couple of years.
Chuck and Dee Robinson, the owners, are great book lovers, and friends of mine.”
Here’s a Video Tour of Village Books:
And here’s their SFF Section:
If you live in the area, be sure to join Village Books for their Steampunk Masquerade this Thursday evening from 5:00 to 7:00 pm. 
And be sure to check out Alma Alexander‘s new ebook (coming out later in trade paperback): 2012: Midnight at Spanish Gardens.
If you have a bookstore you’d like us to highlight, please contact Kat.
We’re updating our theme, so things may be a little messy or slow until we’re finished. Thank you for being patient with us!
My visits to Bellingham have been limited to the airport and hospitals, but the next time I go to visit my step-mother, I’ll have to spend a couple of days checking out this town — and this great store! It looks delightful.
Oh I wish I could visit a lovely book store like that. :)
I’ve read Alma’s ya series and enjoyed it. Looks like a wonderful store.
I love the video tour. What a great idea!
