On Wednesdays, the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association Bestseller List is published. Every week, we love to see what books have been most popular in independent bookstores around our region. As we peruse the list, we look for something special to showcase. Then we present this weekly feature: Thursday Themes.
If the bestseller list is any indication, your local, independent bookstore might be haunted! Pick up one of these titles to enjoy a seasonal shiver.

Midnight Manor: A Backwards Bedtime Book Sid Sharp (#2 Children’s Illustrated)
