Friday, June 8 at 7 pm

Secret Witness: The Untold Story of the 1967 Bombing in Marshall, Michigan examines what happened on the morning of August 18, 1967, when Nola Puyear, who was working downtown at the Tasty Cafe, received a package. She opened it and was instantly killed in a fiery explosion.  In the months that followed, law enforcement and prosecutors wrestled with a crime that to all appearances was senseless. 

Join us at our Parkview store for a fascinating discussion of a small-town Michigan crime and the startling new evidence and freshly uncovered facts that Blaine brought to light.

Myths about Used Bookstores

 All old books are valuable.

The 1880s was a printer’s heaven. Lots of titles were reprinted. There are a huge number of these books around today that are worth nothing, especially if they are damaged or have missing pages.            

All used books are old, damaged and musty.

At Kazoo Books we try to put books on the shelves that are ‘gently used’. In some cases you can’t even tell they have been read. We also wipe down most of the books before they go on the shelves with a cleaner/disinfectant. 

Bookstores that sell old books are dark, dingy and disorganized.

When you enter our store you will find plenty of light, clean areas to sit, comfy chairs and well-organized sections in alphabetical order by author.
