It's cold, dark, and rainy, and the sidewalk in front of our shop is on vacation, but we are OPEN! The road crew has done a nice job of compacting some gravel in front of the businesses on our block, and they've left these handy-dandy guides to show you where it's safe to walk. So come in and visit! Open 1-6 today and Friday, and 1-7 on Saturday!

If you're looking for a new graphic read on this gloomy day and are distraught that we are closed, don't forget we have shelves at @roughdraftny and @halfmoonbooks both of which are open today. New this week at Rough Draft: I Want You by @lisadraws , queen of adult animation, who helped bring us series such as BoJack Horseman (production designer) and Tuca & Bertie (creator). This volume is a re-release of her early cartoon work, an Ignatz Award-winning minicomic series. Fil...led with witty observations of modern (and often taboo) culture. On a Sunbeam (back in stock!) By @tilliewalden . Hailed by the New Yorker as "the magnificent, sweeping, science-fictional" follow-up to Walden's first graphic novel, Spinning. "It is the kind of story that adults can and should give to queer teens, and to autistic teens, and to teens who care for space exploration, or civil engineering, or cross-cultural communication" (4.3.19 issue of NYer, by Stephanie Burt)
