It's a New Year!
Do you have a New Year's Day tradition? Watching the Rose Parade? (Heads up...it's on Monday this year.) Making black eyed peas for good luck? Some like to make a fresh start by cleaning out their closet—is that you? What about the most popular tradition— making a resolution?
However you celebrate the start of 2023, please know that we resolve to do our best to be your literary home. We truly wouldn't be here without you. Thank you for being a treasured customer and friend of Copperfish Books. We wish you good health and a Happy New Year! Â Hope to see you again soon!
