Social Saturday – The Poisoned Pen Bookstore

The Two Gay Geeks feature a local bookstore, The Poisoned Pen, located in the Old Town Scottsdale Art District. This is the place to go for a variety of author events and signings as well as go and find a new book to read. We have been to several release parties for books by Gini Koch, where there is always cake so, you know it is a fun time. 😉

From the Poisoned Pen website:

The Poisoned Pen Bookstore, founded in 1989 by Barbara G. Peters, is an independent bookstore specializing in fiction. Discover with us current and classic works of mystery, thrillers, historical and literary fiction, and literature of the American Southwest, much of it offered in Autographed First Editions and imports. Our Book Clubs bring exciting new work right to your door.
Located in Old Town Scottsdale’s Art District, The Pen is celebrated for its schedule of author and literary events and its global outreach through webcasts and worldwide shipping. In 1997 Peters and her husband Robert Rosenwald founded Poisoned Pen Press, a separate corporation dedicated to publishing excellence in mystery. The Poisoned Pen hosted the Left Coast Crime Conference in 1995. and most years hosts a themed mystery conference of its own in Scottsdale.
