BOOKS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
These are some of the most outstanding recently released new titles of the season. Many of them are currently on our shelves - those that are not are books we wish we had the space to stock. All are books that offer something special - superb writing by talented authors, a riveting reading experience, unforgettable characters, intriguing concepts, fascinating subject matter, impeccable scholarship, or just sheer literary entertainment. These are books that truly deserve your attention. . .


We're open seven days a week - come in and browse! But if you can't make it into the store and you see books listed here that you know you've just got to read, purchase them online from Bookshop for a speedy delivery to your home. All online sales benefit Walden Pond Books just as if you were shopping in our Oakland store. You can also call us at 510-832-4438 to order books for a pickup at the store.
PLEASE NOTE: Remember that not all books available on Bookshop are in stock at the store (we wish we had the space!) so call ahead to check!
