 Invite your friends and I’ll bring the books so you can shop in the comfort of your home.  All books available at the party.  Cash or check sales only.

Books are our passion – we want to share that passion with you. We’ve limited ourselves to great books at bargain prices so that we don’t overwhelm you with too many books at once!

Check my blog for updates on books available for party sales:

How to host a book party:

1. Set a date with me
2. Invite 10 or more people to your home
3. Have comfortable seating –
chairs, couch, pillows on the floor
4. I’ll present the books that I think will interest your group and read some of the stories
5. Everyone will have time to browse, ask questions, and purchase books to take home
6. Everyone will have time to talk and have fun


You receive a rebate of 10% of the total of the books sold in book credit, i.e.:

  • $250 sale gives you a $25 book credit
  • $350 sale gives you a $35 book credit
  • $450 sale gives you a $45 book credit
Our first priority is quality content, then bargain price. Our goal is to keep the price of books in the $3.00 - $7.99 range with no books over $8.00.

We don’t have a catalogue. What you see at a party is what you get. Sometimes, we may be able to reorder an item if we sell out, but all of the books that we carry have a limited supply and may no longer be available at a bargain price.

Books make great friends. Our home and Larry’s classroom are filled to overflowing with books and bookcases. When our children were young, I read to them 4-6 hours over the period of a day. The people in those books became our friends. They helped us learn how roads were built, how people made decisions about how to live their lives, and how people coped with the things that happened to them. History came alive through stories. Poems helped to capture the essence of experiences. Non-fiction books helped us to learn facts about nature and other things. Stories expanded our world.


You may have tangible wealth untold;
Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.
Richer than I you can never be --
I had a Mother who read to me.
