They've got the best selection! Shoutout to the Chatham Bookstore.
Appropriately, one recent purchase was Eula Biss's Having and Being Had (which got me hooked from the opening paragraph on buying furniture for a new house).
On my to-buy list: Ocean Vuong's The Emperor of Gladness, Dorothy Baker's Cassandra at the Wedding, Olivia Laing's Garden Against Time, Gloria Dickie's Eight Bears :)
Thank you for the exquisitely written and felt portrait of this time in your lives. May the colors and flowers, light and land, continue to joyfully welcome you in your new home!
Your writing makes me so nostalgic for the northeast. Many blessings on your new home.
And many blessings back to you, Susie ❤️
Oh, Nandi, I loved your piece about old/new homes. So beautiful and full of emotions that you allow us to share. Bravo!
And you know that original old home so well! ❤️
And I remember it like it was yesterday! So many happy hours 😌
What books are you picking up at that bookstore?

Beautiful imagery, dear Nandi. Portals of new beginnings while honoring the home you lived and loved in—in all of its vibrant colors! 🌼
Your writing is so abundant in imagery and evocative. Here's to many adventures in your new home.
