Dear Reader,
One of my motivations to open RJ Julia Booksellers was because I loved being able to tell friends about a book I loved that they then loved. Building a whole bookstore to do this was maybe a little crazy and now I’m going back to the simplicity of the original passion.
Now, when you sign up for a Just the Right Book! subscription, you can select Roxanne’s Reads as a reading preference.
Italo Calvino, in Why Read the Classics? guides my recommendations:
The classics are books which exercise a particular influence, both when they imprint themselves on our imagination as unforgettable, and when they hide in the layers of memory disguised as the individual’s or the collective unconscious.
While I tend to enjoy darker, thought-provoking fiction or non-fiction, Roxanne’s Reads titles will always try and meet Calvino’s standard — rearranging our brain to see the world and the people around us in a new informed way.
The subscription is a mix of new hardcovers that I’m loving and paperback editions of some of my all-time favorite books.
Simply choose the length of your subscription (4, 6, or 12-months), along with the format (hardcover, paperback, or both), and when you complete your Reading Profile, be sure to select Roxanne’s Reads.
Feel free to reach out to Kathy, our Operations Manager, with any questions at support@justtherightbook.com.
