    Ep. 3: The Life Cycle of a Book

    Kalie and Francesca discuss the journey of a book through Moe's. Ever wondered about those piles of books behind the counter? Or how we know what books to buy when you bring them in? You might find the answers to these and other questions in this episode. We recorded this episode long before the shelter-in-place order. If you're missing being in the store as much as we are, we hope this will remind you of happier times, and that there are happier times to come.
