Independent Bookstore Day across the nation on Saturday, April 29th will give Booklovers’ Gourmet a chance to share with customers all that the store has to offer after three years at its current location at 72 E. Main St. in Webster.

Owner Debra Ostrokolowicz opened Booklovers’ Gourmet in March 1995 with the idea of making the store a cultural oasis in her hometown of Webster. Booklovers’ features new and gently used books, from the hard-to-find to bestsellers, and a curated selection of staff picks. Books can be specially order at no additional charge.

Booklovers’ also carries handpicked unique gifts, journals, bookmarks, pottery mugs, local art, gemstone jewelry, incense, handcrafted soaps and soys, candles, jigsaw puzzles and children’s toys.

To mark Independent Bookstore Day, Booklovers’ Gourmet is hosting Tom Ingrassia, co-author of “One Door Closes: Overcoming Adversity By Following Your Dreams.”

Mr. Ingrassia will be in the store from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m.

Another author will take center stage at Booklovers’ on Saturday, May 6th when Coralee Dubeau signs copies of her new memoir “Language of the Sacred.”
