Book Voyagers / Storytelling with Rona Leventhal
Join us for "Goblins & Giggles," an evening of spooky-ish...
Located in the shoreline town of Madison, Connecticut, R.J. Julia Booksellers has always been a place of inspiration, information, and excitement.
R.J. Julia opened over 26 years ago as an independent bookstore whose mission was, and is, to be a place where words matter, where writer meets reader, where the ambiance and selection and merchandising of books creates an atmosphere that is welcoming and presents the opportunity for discovery. Ultimately we are fiercely committed to putting the right book in the right hand.
We are extremely proud of having won several major awards nationally, statewide and locally, including in part: Publishers Weekly Bookseller of the Year, Lucile Pannell award for bookselling excellence, Connecticut Magazine Best Bookstore, Connecticut Retailers Award for Community Commitment, the Advocate’s Best Bookstore and the New Haven Business Small Business Award.
We host over 300 events each year. Authors from all over the country — some even from overseas — visit the store to inspire, educate, and entertain us.
In addition to our events schedule, we pride ourselves on having a knowledgeable staff, opinionated book selections (look for those little white “shelf-talker” tags), and a consuming passion for reading. You can be sure that when you pick up any book at our store, it is one that we have hand-selected with specific reading audiences in mind.
