VIOLETS at London Drugs!
My friend Audrey (who’s an amazing yogini, writer and child wrangler) lives in Vancouver, Canada, and she sent me this photo of The Violets of March at London Drugs, which, for the U.S. readers here, I understand is sort of like Walgreens or Longs Drugs. Anyway, I think London Drugs sounds exceedingly fancier than any U.S.-based drug store, don’t you think? It sounds like the place Kate Middleton would go to pick up toothpaste and shower gel! Ooh, la la!
I’ve been hearing from tons of Canadian readers lately, so I’m really happy that Violets is finding bookstores and readers in the great country of Canada. Yay!
Have you seen Violets in Canada? If so, which stores? I’d love to hear!

How fun! Congrats on all the international success. I should have looked for it while in the UK this summer. Darn, I guess I’ll have to go back and report.

Hi Sarah!
I’m the manager of the North Vancouver Black Bond Books in British Columbia, Canada so your neighbour just across the border! We are a proud independent book company since 1963. My co-workers and I love “Violets of March” and it has a spot on our staff favorites section. We can’t wait until your second book comes out!

As a Canadian and former Vancouverite, I just have to say Black Bond in North Van is great!
I’ll also say that my friend, Eve Kerwin (author in her own right–http://www.amazon.com/Awakening-Kerwin-White-Buffalo-Woman/dp/0741434008) just lost her mother so my husband and I flew her out for a 6-day visit over the long weekend. Instead of sending flowers for the funeral, I sent a stack of books from Amazon.com and The Violets of March was included. When Eve asked me what she should bring to read on the airplane, I said, “Violets!”
After a good arrival hug, she just gushed about the book and couldn’t wait to continue reading it on the plane ride home to Connecticut. She’s going to promote it to all her friends and clients back east so you just might see an uptick in sales from the northeast 🙂

Me, I found my book The Violets of March at the airport Pierre Elliott Trudeau in Montreal when I went to Florida this winter.
