FEATURED NEW ARRIVALS FOR THE WEEK OF 3/17/08
PLEASE NOTE: This is the second-last New Books page before our move in April 2008. Due to the absolute chaos of renovating our new
8400 sq. ft. building on Garry, we have only been putting fifty books on this page for the last few weeks (instead of the usual hundred or so). The New Books
page will return to full strength after our re-opening.
(To hold or order any of these books [or to check on current availability], please email kelly@aquabooks.ca.)
