"What have you been reading lately?" It is the best question you can ask a bookseller, and one that SIBA booksellers live to answer. SIBA sponsors blogs for its member bookstores and their customers to give them a chance to widen their audiences, talk to readers and to each other about the books they find exciting, and to provide more exposure for their store, and all southern independent bookstores.
