“In a small town on a cold winter night I was given a very warm welcome by Bookin’ It. Writers write (in part) because they want to be loved. Bookin’ It knows how to make writers (and readers) feel loved.”

Kate DiCamillo, Award-winning author of Because of Winn-Dixie, Tiger Rising, Tale of Desperaux, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane and the Mercy Watson series

“Last summer, the four authors who comprise the Minnesota Crime Wave arrived at Bookin’It…to find Laura and her cohorts outfitted as Keystone cops and escaped convicts, parading in front of the store, drumming up a crowd to welcome the visiting authors. As one of those authors, I’ve got to say that I’ve never been more pleasantly surprised or felt more honored by a bookseller. It’s criminal just how much fun ‘doing time’ at Laura’s store can be.”

William Kent Krueger, author of the Cork O’Connor mystery series

“Unlike most book stores and their owners, Bookin’ It and Laura Hansen encourage reading, Book Groups, AND writing. Bookin’ It is a warm, exciting gathering place for a wide community of book folk. Each time I walk in, I feel surrounded by a love of books.”
