Audiobook listeners welcome too. Whether you join us for every week of this journey or come and go, we get it. Life is busy, there are commitments and time gets away from you! With this guide you’ll have an idea of where we’ll be each week.

Come when you can and come as you are. This is a welcoming community looking forward to taking this book journey with you!

✍️ Writers’ Coffee Hour at Espressions ☕

Love words? So do we.

Join fellow writers from the community for a relaxed, come-as-you-are writing session at Espressions: Coffee & Community. Whether you're working on a novel, a blog post, a school paper, or just journaling for fun — you're welcome here.

This is a casual time to write in good company. Bring your current project or start something new. No pressure, no readings, just a supportive space to write alongside others who get it.

📝 All writers welcome — any age, any genre, any experience level.

Come grab a coffee, find a cozy seat, and let’s get some words on the page together.
We can’t wait to see you there!

While you sip your coffee and enjoy a well-earned moment to yourself, your child can set off on an enchanting adventure during Storytime!

Led by Lisa, our shop manager, published author, and former elementary school teacher, each story session is filled with imagination, fun, and a little touch of magic. Lisa brings tales to life in a way that captivates young minds—she knows just how to spark wonder and joy through storytelling.

After the story, kids can enjoy a themed craft activity that lets them bring a piece of the story home with them!

Ideal for children ages 3–8.
We kindly ask that parents or caregivers stay nearby—Storytime is a shared experience, not a drop-off program.

Join us for stories, crafts, and a little everyday magic—only at Storytime with Lisa!

"Cain's Jawbone" is a murder mystery puzzle written by "Torquemada"-Edward Powys Mathers. The puzzle was first published in 1934 as part of The Torquemada Puzzle Book. In 2019, crowdfunding publisher Unbound published a new stand-alone edition of the puzzle in collaboration with the charity The Laurence Sterne Trust.

Cain's Jawbone has been described as "one of the hardest and most beguiling word puzzles ever published. This club started this summer and has continuted on! So each Friday evening, we're hosting "Friday Night Murder Club" at Espressions. You'll find our 'crime board' as a part of the Potter Common Rooms in the back! Join us for a cup of coffee and a bite to eat as we move the pages around in this great mystery looking for the solution. Come when you can or come each Friday! We'll see you there.

It is not nessary, but if you'd like to get a copy of "Cain's Jawbone", we have a link below.

We are going on a board game adventure! Come and play a new game or bring an old favorite! Bring your friends and family too!

This event allows us to provide a space for our community to gather, connect, and enjoy some fun over coffee.

We hope you'll join us!
