On a day that started with errands followed by a teen baseball double header, I managed to spend a few minutes at @bookwarehouse.bsky.social on Main for Indie Bookstore Day, and it was glorious. I scored a mystery book and I'm excited to read it! #cibd2025
We're getting together at @bookwarehouse.bsky.social to celebrate the finalists of the 2025 BC and Yukon Book Prizes and we hope to see you there! This is a great chance to buy copies of the finalist books, and to have them signed by authors and illustrators in attendance. Hope to see you there!
Not only do we have a Black Bond passport this year (hit 2 or more of the stores, get a chance to win a $100 gift card), but also there'll be scavenger hunts and quizzes, bookmark stations, swag baskets/totes, free books with minimum purchase, a prize wheel, and so many local authors!

A man just came in with two books off our $5 bargain carts. "I wasn't expecting to buy anything," he said, "but they're like rescue dogs."
Like most other Canadian independent bookstores, we are extremely concerned that the Canadian Government has included books in a counter-tariff against the US. This would cripple the industry here in Canada and do minor damage to the U.S....
Bookstores across Canada are raising their voices to ask the federal government to exempt books from counter-tariffs due to take effect on April 2. Read an important notice + call to action from our bookseller Book Warehouse/Black Bond Books: www.blackbondbooks.com
