Month of Independents


A Great Sale on Used Books!



Freedom!



In the spirit of individuality, underdog perseverance, and the freedom of speech, Chop Suey Books will celebrate our 6th Annual Month of Independents throughout the month of July. In order to honor our brave patrons who realize the importance of small, independently owned bookstores, we have devised a sale that will save you money while helping you support other local booksellers. The idea is simple: give to your local bookstores, and they will give back to you. For the month of July, Chop Suey Books will give customers 20% off of used books if they provide a receipt dated in the month of July from a bookstore listed below. For customers who prove that they have supported three or more of these stores this July, we will extend a 30% discount.

Remember, support means support, so we expect for you to spend at least $10 at one of these stores:

Alchemists
Aquarian Bookshop
Black Swan Books
Book People
The Book Room
Carytown Books
Creatures & Crooks
Ex Libris Books
Fountain Books
Midlothian Book Exchange
Narnia
Owens and Ramsey
Phoenix Rising
Richmond Book Shop
Stories

Upcoming Events




Friday, July 3rd, 6-8 pm: Opening reception for Ride The Wild, an exhibition of randomly inspired doodles and wheelie influenced linear disasters by Steve Crandall and Evan Vinditti.


Books On Wheels

Founded in February of 2007, Books On Wheels is definitely Richmond's best free book/free bike repair non-profit agency. With a fleet of 2 semi-functioning school buses, Books On Wheels is a mobile organization that gives away thousands of books and fixes hundreds of bikes a year. Their events usually take place in the Richmond area, but the buses have carried them as far north at Chicago, and as far south as Austin. They just returned from their third visit to New Orleans, and are "gearing" up for a summer of great events. They are always accepting donations of childrens' books and bikes of any size, all of which can be dropped off at Chop Suey Books. If you have any interest in hosting a Books On Wheels event, please contact them at booksonwheelsrva@yahoo.com.
