This Week at Aqua Books

This Week at Aqua Books is the award-winning weekly e-newsletter from the single typing finger of me, Bookstore Owner Kelly Hughes. While it hasn't actually won anything but hearts and minds, TW@AB has been informing, entertaining and Tilting at Windbags since 2005. Sounds great, yes? Well, it's not posted online because then it would be a blog, wouldn't it? (At over 1600 subscribers and climbing, this is easily the most popular I've been since I was a child star on CTV's Let's Go! in 1982.) Click here to receive This Week at Aqua Books in your inbox. Here are a couple of historical tidbits.
