The 5th Annual Bookstore Day
Bookstore Day, also known as Indie Bookstore Day, is held on the last Saturday in April. Inspired by the success of Record Store Day, Bookstore Day was started 5 years ago by some California booksellers. This year there are more than 400 bookstores participating.
Follow @BookstoreDay on Twitter and @indiebookstoreday on Instagram.
If you only have time for one stop: City of Asylum Bookstore
In the event that your Saturday does not allow you to visit EVERY bookstore in Pittsburgh, head to the City of Asylum Bookstore where they have lined up a great crew of local book advisers to help you shop.
- 12-1pm: Brittany Thurman
- 2-3pm: Rick Sebak
- 3-4pm: Matthew Buchholz, owner, Alternate Histories
