Bluebird Books is honored to partner with Plus5 to hold a Reading The Banned Book Club each semester highlighting a book being taught in our schools that has been challenged for removal and engage in conversation led by English teachers from Edmond Public Schools. This helps us to understand and be educated on the way a book is discussed in our classrooms and provides a wonderful time for community. The cost of the ticket is $5 and includes pizza for each participant - please bring a covered drink.

Purchase a copy of the book at Bluebird Books, 21 S. Broadway, Edmond, OK 73034  // Online or an ebook version on our Bluebird Books Bookshop site or an audiobook on our Bluebird Books Libro site.

The Cozy Cardinal Book Club led by bookseller Maria, will be meeting to discuss Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy on Oct. 7 from 6-7 PM. They will also be meeting again in November for those who need a little extra time to read. This has been a bookseller favorite at Bluebird Books.

A novel of breathtaking twists, dizzying beauty, and ferocious love, Wild Dark Shore is about the impossible choices we make to protect the people we love, even as the world around us disappears.

Join the In The Margins Book Club on Oct. 9 from 1:00-2:00 PM to a book released in 1998 that gives insight to what we're experiencing today -  Confederates in the Attic. A non-fiction book by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Tony Horwitz that explores the enduring legacy of the American Civil War in the modern South. Through a mix of travelogue, social commentary, and humor, Horwitz chronicles his journey to various Southern states, meeting reenactors, historians, and descendants who are still deeply connected to the war. The book examines the "Unfinished Civil War" and the cultural impact of the Lost Cause ideology, blending humorous observations with poignant insights into the complex relationship between the past and present in America.

Join Owner/Bookseller Lori on Oct. 21 from 6:00-7:00 PM to discuss one of her favorite releases in 2025 - The Road To Tender Hearts. A darkly comic and warm-hearted novel about an old man on a cross-country mission to reunite with his high school crush - bringing together his adult daughter, two orphaned kids, and a cat who can predict death. A bit of a spoiler - it also includes an alligator at a country club in Houston named T. Boone Pickens.

It's the 40th Anniversary of the Pulitzer Prize winning Lonesome Dove. Many have seen the series, but not as many have made the journey from Texas to Montana and back by book. Bookseller Sarah (and many other of Bluebird's booksellers) are excited to discuss (and possibly read and discuss future books in the series together). Journey to the dusty little Texas town of Lonesome Dove and meet an unforgettable assortment of heroes and outlaws, whores and ladies, Indians and settlers. Richly authentic, beautifully written, always dramatic, Lonesome Dove is a book to make us laugh, weep, dream, and remember.
