May you be good to bookstores in May
LAPA would like to ask all readers to support their local bookstores. They need you. Many of them are open for very limited hours only, but most will go to great lengths to locate books when you phone or email them, many will even deliver.
We also continue to push e-books into the market, so please support the authors if you can’t wait, but remember you can order these books now and your store will get them when the printers may deliver books again.
There is one exception: Didi Potgieter’s sizzling e-rotica is currently only available as an e-book.
