About Bookstore Romance Day

Join us in celebrating the vibrant, diverse, passionate—in more ways than one!—community of romance & erotica authors and readers on the inaugural Bookstore Romance Day! Our booksellers are fierce advocates of romance and the ways in which, by centering consent and female pleasure, it fills the world with a little more love. We're thrilled to partner with indie bookstores across the country in dedicating a day to literature that transports, titillates, and always promises a happy ending. Learn more about the Bookstore Romance Day project and participating bookstores here.
