Something New To Read!

We always wait for newly released books with anticipation! Perhaps it is because our faithful customers come in looking for that ‘perfect’ book. If you haven’t been in to The Purple Cow Bookstore for awhile, you will be surprised by what you see! Our shelves are stocked with new releases and a variety of books we haven’t carried before. We have a Halloween section and lots of picture books – many that are already on the New York Times bestseller list.

An exciting new book is The Grimm Legacy by Polly Shulman

This modern fantasy is a favorite young adult book because of the adventure, romance, and magical aspects from rhyming charms and a mirror that talks to flying carpet rides. Imagine working in a library that loans out magic objects from the collections of the Brothers Grimm. That is just what The Grimm Legacy does. It takes you on a discovery quest to find out who is stealing the magic from priceless items in the collections repository.

The Clockwork Three by Matthew J. Kirby
(Utah teacher and author)

This is the story of three characters – Guiseppe, an orphaned street musician, Hannah, a strong willed girl from the tenements, and Frederick, a talented clock maker’s apprentice. The three are brought together by extraordinary events and together they create a friendship that ultimately works like the turning gears of a clock. This adventure opens a world of imagination, sacrifice, and suspense as the characters are challenged to overcome their greatest fears. This remarkable debut story will leave readers with a sense of wonder long after they have closed the book.
