It's a Preorder Party, Baby — and You're Invited! 🎉

Did someone say books, prizes, AND a discount? Oh, honey, you know The Charmed Page never shows up to the party empty-handed—and this time, we’re bringing the confetti and the community love. This bash isn’t just about indie bookstores (aka your favorite magical little haven of stories, sarcasm, and serotonin)—it’s also about shining the spotlight on indie authors who are out here hustling hard and serving up stories that slap.

We’ve teamed up with Authors4IndieBookstores (you know, the cool lit kids on Instagram who actually get us) for the Indie Bookstore Preorder Party, happening June 27–29, and trust us, this is the kind of celebration you’ll want to RSVP “hell yes” to.

Here’s the gist:

✨ You preorder books (from our indie bookstore, naturally).
✨ You get 15% off your order (code: PARTY2025).
✨ You could win a mountain of prizes from Authors4IndieBookstores—like Libro.fm memberships, exclusive ARCs, signed books, author swag, and even a $100 Bookshop.org gift card.
✨ You become the literary legend you were born to be.

But wait, there’s a bingo card. Because no party is complete without a little friendly competition. 🥂📓

So, how do you play?

1. Use our bingo card and start preordering books that fit the prompts—think "queer love story," "book with a blue cover," "swoony sequel energy" and more.

2. Make your purchases through our preorder collection—we’re indie, we’re adorable, and we’ve got great taste.

3. Track your bingos and submit your receipts using this form right here.

4. Get rewards depending on how many you hit:

📍 1 Bingo = Exclusive indie bookstore sticker (collectible? Yes. Iconic? Also yes.)
📍 10 preorders = Entry to win 1 of 5 prize packs curated by the authors themselves.
📍 Full blackout = First 10 blackout heroes get a prize pack guaranteed, plus all blackout entries get a shot at the grand prize: signed books, early ARCs, and premium swag galore.

And just by participating? You’re entered to win a $100 Bookshop.org gift card. Boom. Done. You're already winning.

Whether you're snagging that juicy upcoming fantasy sequel, the spicy romance your group chat won’t shut up about, or a nonfiction gem you’ll totally read this time, your preorder makes a big difference to small bookstores like ours. 🖤

So go on—

✨ Shop early. Save some cash. Win fabulous things. Support indie. ✨
