Every Wednesday, the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association publishes the regional bestseller list. On Thursdays, we celebrate Thursday Themes to shine a spotlight on some of the books from the list and give our brains a different way of thinking about books.

Raise your hand if you’ve gone for a hike or a walk in the last week! The titles we’re buying in indie bookstores bring nature to our bookshelves, too.
