Books & Bottles: Lost The Plot Pop-Up & Community Book Swap

Description

Saturday, October 10th | 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM Link: https://www.princessandbear.com/product/books-bottles-lost-the-plot-pop-up-community-book-swap 

Our summer event was such a hit that we’re bringing Books & Bottles back for autumn! Join us on Saturday, October 10th, for another cozy afternoon at the intersection of independent wine and independent stories. 

We’re welcoming Lost The Plot, Seattle’s premier mobile bookstore, back to the tasting room alongside our popular community book swap. Whether you are looking to buy something fresh from the bookmobile, trade a beloved favorite at our swap table, or simply settle in with a glass of organic Southern French wine, this is your perfect autumn excuse to slow down. 

Two Ways to Play: Shop or Swap 

1. Shop the Lost The Plot Bookmobile Step inside the mobile bookstore parked right outside the tasting room. Lost The Plot specializes in adult fiction, prioritizing brilliant, independent stories by and about underrepresented voices (including BIPOC, queer, and disabled authors). What to look for: Curated new and used fiction, unique literary merchandise, and their popular "Blind Date with a Book"—a mystery read wrapped in brown paper with cryptic clues. 

2. Participate in the Free Community Book Swap Inside the tasting room, we are hosting our casual, community-driven book exchange. It’s entirely free to participate. 

- Bring 1 to 3 Books: Bring gently pre-loved books you’ve already read and are ready to pass along in clean, giftable condition. 

- Trade Evenly: Drop your books at our designated swap table, grab a glass of wine, and choose the same number of books to take home with you. 

- Community Cycle: Any books left over at 5:00 PM will be distributed directly to Little Free Libraries around our local neighborhood. 

The Perfect Pairing 

Lost The Plot shines a spotlight on independent, small-batch authors who break the mold. We champion that exact same ethos in our glasses—sourcing low-intervention, organic, and biodynamic wines directly from family-owned domains in the Languedoc-Roussillon. 

Come for the books, stay for the wine, and leave with a full bookshelf.
