UPDATE on current shop status - as of June 2020
UPDATE: Hi everyone, I know there have been a lot of questions about when we're planning on reopening. I figured I should do a post so that everyone is on the same page. I am not planning on reopening the shop to the public for the foreseeable future. It is just too risky, and I care too much about my customers (and myself) to take unnecessary risks right now. I want you all to remain safe!
I am continuing to offer order pickup at the shop, and mailing services (which are very reasonable for shipping books via USPS Media Mail, hooray for the US Postal Service!!!).
For used books, the best way to inquire about and order them is to email me at michelle.souliere@gmail.com -- feel free to browse the shelfshots album here, or on Instagram (the posts are often slightly different, so feel free to browse both to get ideas). :) https://www.instagram.com/greenhandbooks/ If you need to call the shop, I'm generally in there running around putting orders together Weds-Sat 11:00-6:00.
Another option is here on my new Shopify site, where I am gradually listing new retail items, adding new things whenever I have a spare moment (ha!).
For those of you who are struggling with decision making (and boy do I know the feeling), I have started putting together customized bundles. Pick a budget from $30 up (remember this will include sales tax and shipping if you need them mailed), email me your preferences:
-- what you're in the mood for (genre? topics? fiction/nonfiction?),
-- whether reading copies are okay for condition, and if you have a preference for hardcover vs softcover
-- give me an idea of what your past favorites are,
-- and let me know if there are any authors etc that you either have enough of already or don't like, so I don't send you something you don't want. ;)
I'll handpick you a book stack of your very own! :D Folks have been really happy so far, so it seems to be working well.
A lot of you have asked how things are going. "It's been a rollercoaster!" is the short answer, but because a lot of you have been so supportive, it seems to be working, and I'm squeaking by adequately to keep things going during these weird, weird times. I hope you're all hanging in there too.
Many thanks for everyone's help over the last 2 1/2 months. I couldn't do this without you all! 💕
